Fitting Xenons is a simple plug and play with correct loom. Making the Bi-Xenon function is simple plug and play with 1 wire added. Quick flick in VCDS and you're rolling.

If you want the auto levelling then yes that's more involved but the forum has a few retro fit gurus so still not a biggy.

Don't forget EVERYTHING can be retro fitted. One of the joys of the Mk5/Mk6 platform.

How do you retrofit sunroof?

Thanks for the advice guys, think I'll just stick to looking for one that's been well looked after regardless of spec :)

Got any more info on that?   The factory lights are just xenon (dipped) + halogen (main) aren't they?  How do you get proper bi-xenons without the correct lenses and bulbs etc?

@Pudding

I bought OEM xenons, had them fitted and they are just plug and play with correct loom, add a wire, flick a switch in VCDS and et voila....Bi-Xenons.

Here you go, scroll down to the part that says Getting true bi-xenon function......
