Retro Fit Xenons

[AbidK]

Does anyone know if you can retro fit xenons to a CSL that came without please?

If it is possible is it a DIY job or do they require some coding?

Thanks

Yes and yes.
They can be fitted and you will need the switch (headlight control unit) and it will need coded.

Mine has them retro fitted but I'm going to switch back to Halogen.

Thanks Paul.


Can I ask why you are going back to Halogen please? Are they better or has teh retro fit not worked properly?

Thanks

They have been fitted since before my ownership so 10+ years but I just want the car back to its original spec.
That's the only reason.

What you want is this, but it says that it is NLA. You will need to check with a dealer or online supplier. Part of the kit though is to fit headlight washers which would require some painting.

Search for EBA 9416445 online, which is the official BMW installation instructions.
