Hi guys, I drive C4 2008 version 1 model 5 door model VTi 120. (Exclusive model)

I have the normal headlights with H7 and H1 bulbs all fine.
I like to upgrade these headlights and i found a almost new set With the Xenon lights in there, The plan is to remove the bumper and remove the Halogeen headlights and replace them for the Xenon version Headlights.
Will the connectors fit? do i have to make some changes? Will the headlights assist in the turns and ore do i need to do some with the headlight motors ?

Hope to hear from you ..

You can't just swap the halogens for xenon, it's not that easy I'm afraid

Yes, and you'll need to have self-levelling and headlamp washers as well. But the regs in your country (Netherlands) may be different.

If yo umean HID asxenon, in the UK they'd be illegal. They pretty much need to come out of the factory with them.

LED might be a betteroption for upgrading. They run off 12v, so no meed for the high voltage module.
