Hi Paseb.
But the headlamp seems to be secured to the metal frame by glue....I'll take a closer look.
Thanks for the quick reply.

mine weren't glue...

usually there is a metal ring that has 3 bolts, you remove the 3 bolts, and the harness behind the light, and it comes off...

new lights looks like this :

You have the auto-adjusting headlight option that were a ROW option and mandatory for some countries (Japan). They already have an Ecode pattern to the lens and the bulbs are removable H4 units from the factory. Our 7" round replacements will not replace this type as it is a special housing for the auto-adjusting mechanism.

Hi Travis.
Yes, mine's a ROW car-does not have the auto-tilt function but does have an in-cabin adjustment **** for tilting of the headlamps if loads are carried in the boot/trunk (rear heavy).
Thought of buying the kit to replace my existing headlamps.....damn.

The lenses you have are already ecodes so replacement of that part is not needed. You are not excluded from being able to implement the upgrade, you simply do not require all the parts. The wiring harness and higher wattage bulbs will plug right in.

Do you know what option code this is? I have already placed my order but am worried that I might have this?

I think it is a ROW option only... and I see that you are in Texas, so unless you have a ROW car you should be fine.

If you've already added this kit, where did you mount the relays and with what?

Is this kit available with RHD headlights for United Kingdom (we drive on the wrong side of the road!)? If not do you have a part no for the headlights so that i can try and get them over here?
Cheers

my head light wiring harness is getting old now and the passenger side light is starting to go on and off when I jiggle the harness.

would I get better lighting if I got the e-code hellas and higher wattage bulbs compared to my silverstars I have in there already? or should I just get the harness?
