And the result after we finished...

The car already had the xenon setting set to present a while ago...so no problems with that.

The lights are euro spec bi xenon lights (not related to/with the group buy that is currently going on)...the foglights have been replaced by clear ones...and this shot also shows the euro impact strip (no side marker) and folding mirror feature...

NOPE, it is EURO spec...the line difference are only applicable for the sedan bi xenons...made by automotive lighting (Bosch)...ALL HELLA 203 coupe lights (yes - the coupe lights are made by Hella - not by automotive lighting) al come with the same lines underneath the reflector...the difference is to be found in the lightpattern and the possibility to level out the upgoing angle in the beam pattern.

203 sedan or coupe? As for the sedan - spare the trouble...I can post a link to pictures with the differences...for the coupe: make my day.
