I recently bought an B9.5 after my B8.5 got written off.. with my B8.5, I retrofitted powerfolds, interior lights, and puddle lights.
I’ve seen a few that can be done on the B9.5 (mainly the multicolour interior lights). But what sort of ones are not too expensive or fairly simple?
I see you...
Hi,
I was recently rear-ended and my car is being written off. I called my insurer who seems to have passed this responsibility on to a credit hire company. This company, which i was only under the impression were dealing with a courtesy car, have came back with the valuation offer which is...
I spent a lot of time searching for something like this and found extremely little, the projectors can be changed and modified but actual aftermarket xenon headlights don’t exist yet from what I could find
What I did find though, is an American company called Spyder that is currently working on...
Cost wise I’m able to get the full headlights for about £400 for a set as I know a few breakers. The adapter is about £50 too, it’s then a case of cost for new high line CCM with component protection removed (to enable high beam) self-levelling and washers which I’ve not accounted for, so al in...
When you guys retrofit them, do you also install washers? I’m curious as to the difficulty of the washers and self levelling install, electrics I can do (mostly) but I don’t feel confident enough to deal with the self levelling or massacring my front bumper.
Installing the Xenons and harness is...
Hi all,
Looking for some info and there’s not a lot of definitive info out there from what I could find, just lots of speculation and dead end threads,
What exactly is required for a facelift xenon retrofit? I know the Kufatec adapters and headlights with ballasts/bulbs are a must, legally...
So managed to get my hands on the left mirror base with the right one coming soon, seems like the new module I have is fault as it doesn’t detect either the new or old mirror in an output test, guessing the module is faulty or the M revision isn’t compatible with my vehicle?
It seems the mirror...
Ahh I did see your post when I searched and I have no clue why I didn’t use it, Sorry!
I’ve never heard any mention of PR code compatibility for mirrors, only other parts (TPMS for example) what should I look out for with mirrors?
Thanks!
I’d imagine the S4 comes as standard with them, but door puddle lights and warning lights are easy as well as the foot wells which is a bit trickier but if you don’t already have them it looks 100x better after
Hi all,
I'm in the middle of gathering all the parts together for a powerfold retrofit and only left with the mirror bases to go, does any know or able to point me in the direction of the part numbers for powerfold bases that (just incase all of them don't) also support heated mirrors?
I've...
Hi all,
I have been looking at retrofitting xenons and i've managed to locate a set from an old friend in Spain for an extremely good price.
Issue of course... they're from an LHD car. I know that there's a tourist option mode that converts headlight direction for driving abroad which might...
I was thinking about them being legal as well but it doesn't seem like it matters as it seems everyone uses the non-road use bulbs without issue.
That being said, Diamond vision seems to be the exact look i'm after
Thanks
Hi,
I'm having a really difficult time with finding the correct bulbs for my B8.5 halogen headlights to colour match DRLs and fogs
The issue is finding the correct coloured bulbs! I'm looking for a xenon-like colour (somewhere between white-cool blue) I've tried loads of them such as osram...
I did replace one footwell back to stock and it seems to be okay, the flickering is far less than it previously was but it does occasionally do it (actually bearable though) the leds I did buy were advertised as error free(assumed they’d be canbus and not flicker) the reading lights I’ve...
Hi,
I appear to have some sort of power issue with my B8.5 (SE Tecknik) and wondering if anyone can assist.
My 12v sockets don't currently work (both front and rear) but the cigarette lighter heats. the front 12v has a ring of light around it but supplies no power.
I retrofitted front...
Hi all,
I'm currently going through the process of upgrading all the small parts that I can, currently i'm on the headlightd and i've got the mainbeam and dipped to LEDs but with the DRLs and Indicators, you can't access them from the back like the B8 (I believe).
The only way into them that I...
