Subtle Enhancements - Like to Have

[donp38]

anyone recommend what bulbs to use to replace?
Mine are the original ones, so need to replace with new ones.

not much else, but would consider a professional manual conversion.
Anyone know who I could go to?

There's only one person in UK who has done it, and done it properly.
The cost would more than likely be ~20k which usually scares people away.

If you want to go that route, better get some halogen/xenon headlights(not X+), they will become expensive and scarce once the word is out.
There are led kits and stuff already out for them, designed and sold by the Dutch.

Sounds interesting. Would you have a link to them?

This kit will turn xenon headlights (not xenon plus!) into bi-xenons so you get xenon dipped beam and full beam.

I'm in the process of making hybrid headlights out of xenon plus self-leveling motors and electronics, put into basic halogen headlights with those projectors in.

If you look at the difference its staggering, expecially compared to xenon plus

Oh yeah, if any of you buy this you will have to pay a ransom fee of £10 to UPS

If you ar willing to DIY fit projector units you might want to have a look at second hand LED units from other cars. 2nd gen Nissan Qashqai are pretty cheap on eBay, I got one with broken bracket for £20ish, and there are no electronics in headlight so can just be wired up like halogen.

I think I have xenon plus.. How can I check?
Simply renew the bulbs would make a difference/benefit?
They are 20+ yrs old. Looking at the history, never been replaced.
Re the manual...would like to drive one, but think this one is too nice to do a swap on...
