Title: headlight question??
Post by: patrickcullen87 on March 14, 2011, 07:35:49 am

might sound a little stupid but here goes....is it possible to  fit the xenon headlights (full casing) with the kufatec adaptor but still use the original halogen bulbs for now? reason being i have someone wanting to buy me original headlights and i am waiting to get ballasts bulbs and ignitors for the xenons, so is this possible to do, would they work ok just untill these parts arrive?  :ashamed:

No the holder in the headlamps is a totally different attachment for the xenon bulb vs the standard H7 Halogen units. Sorry.

As said, xenon is D2S fitting plus there isnt any wiring in there suitable for a H7 bulb. Ignitor uses 4 thin wires for power, H7 uses two thick wires.
