Don't know, but I have a feeling there is more to it than meets the eye. ballasts arn't mentioned in the ebay ad, mabe they are built into the unit??

Well I know that washers and auto-levelling is a legal thing that is needed on factory fit Xenons but not on after built fits. As my car was already built, I asked about whether it was possible to add Xenons to the car after the buid but the dealer said no. I don't know if this was becuase the auto levelling is something that couldn't be done or if there is more to it.

Just bought some Philips X-treme H7 bulbs for the dipped beams I will give you a progress report when they arrive. If I really like them I will also get the main beams we shall see |

Can be done, but you must have auto levelling (probably need something calibrating too) and headlamp wash - if you don't have these you're illegal (Construction and use requiremet). Oh, and an MOT failure... |

That's only the case if they are factory fit. Aftermarket don't have the same requirements. 09MY FL2 Td4 XS, Style Pack, Privacy Glass, Martinique Blue.. oh so very blue.. |
