Can xenons be retro fitted from another golf?

[gadge]

I'd like to buy one with them already but if i cant find one, can they be easily fitted afterwards?

[SteveP]

Yes they can, ask JPC, he's did it on his GT 

[gadge]

ok, thanks. Didnt know if they where like AFL on the astras, big no no to retro fit and got to connect to steering wheel loom.

Plug and Play adapters are available from www.kufatec.de so you can plug them straight in.

You won't have the auto leveling or headlight washers unless you want to send big bucks

thats pretty much it, a few clicks with vag com, adaptor looms and xenons headlights. fit them and your done! ;)

Are the self levelers and washers needed to pass an MOT?
Also I am looking to buy some from germany. Will I be able to change the beam pattern so it is exactly like UK versions of the xenons?
Thanks

Yes, washers and autolevellers are needed to MOT.
Autolevelling from kufatec is 390 euros, wiring only is 90 euro.
I have just installed the autolevelling, not that hard to do.

Hi guys, as you can see from some of the pics of my car i work beside VOSA and asked the questions about autoleveling and washers. As long as its set to the correct level job is done. Headlight washers are not part of the MOT even when you have xenons.
So no requirement to have either and thats from VOSA staff direct.

Hope this helps

....They are probably confusing headlight auto-levelling with headlight alignment re MOT.

But they will NOT be legal!

Won't have the correct beam pattern for the UK - at best, they will have just a flat beam on dip - which will defo fail an MoT
