General Fitted my Xenons..Heres How

[ioannidis]

Did anybody else had simillar problems?

I dont want to mess around with resistors and stuff.
I want to fit them but i'm toooo tired to hear anything from the car (beep beep f**ng beep)

Did your body computer "discovered" yours led somehow?

 

[coyle]

Possibly, im not too sure?
the car doesn't been to let you know of bulb failure, it only says it on the screen for approx 20seconds when you turn on the ignition

 

[ioannidis]

Apparently mine is little bitchy and beeps...
Thanks anyway!

 

[coyle]

hehe...ooohh no

Here is with halogen and see how the light cuts off on the top

Now see with a proper xenon light bulb housing from the manufacturer

I do agree with the fact that the light does not cut off as sharp in the top pic as normal but i have to say if coyles will pass an MOT i dont see what the problem is. the bottom pic is of a propoer factory fitted xenon light. the only reason, i belive, this light is sharper is because of the projectors that are fitted to them. my dad has fitted after market xenon kit like coyles to his alfa 147 but has also fitted the projectors and there is absolutely nothing wrong with them at all. passes the MOT the lot.

have to say though Coyle looks good m8 and if you like it and it works theres nothing to worry about. I've got blue tinted halogen bulbs in mine atm which gives off a crisp light blue light on the road, but was thinking about the xenon upgrade when the money comes in .

no bulb warning for me,

got mine from hid's direct, there ballast has the porpper set up to stop the obd error messages. love em, i can see

and not once been flashed by other drivers, and coppers dont seem bothered, been behind and past loads

 

[ioannidis]

I was talking about the little lights. Not the dip ones. I've already installed HID XENON but i'm interested for the little ones. The 5Watt each we have.
Don't know how you call them.

yer, you don't get error messages for the headlights..
only the sidelight's.

Here!!! There you go! Thank you!
So the question goes like:
Can i install the quad LED sidelights without any error messages from the car?????
Has anybody else (besides coyle) installed them with success?

It seem to be set to dazzle oncoming drivers looking at the beam on the far right

 

[ioannidis]

That is a foto from a right handed drive car...

 

[coyle]

i would of said from a left hand drive car...
eg..from abroad, so the light pattern is actualy lower on the left, which is the area of oncoming drivers. and higher on the outside/kerb section

 

[ioannidis]

That's what i firstly wanted to type... Left handed.
Something is wrong with my keyb...

 

[coyle]

ok...yeh sure

 

[ioannidis]

Happened to you too ah?

Fitted my xenon's today using the guide from this topic. They work a treat. On dark roads there is a massive difference. Look well cool aswell!

i thought you were talking about the headlights, but yeah i got warning on the side lights, so got some xenon side lights, there brill, nearly as blue as led's without the iligality of leds

 

[coyle]
