Lights Upgrade
I really wana upgrade my standard hazed lensed xenon headlights to a set of clear bi-xenon headlights.
No i thought this would be like changing the rear lights on an e46 bmw m3 from standard to l.e.d., but thats easy on there cars because they just put updated software , as the later e46's had l.e.d. rear lights.
But c32 do not have a later model, they all came with the hazy lensed lights.So when i change them will it come up with a dash error or not, and if so what is the solution.
Im guessing it cane be done easily as all u guys have clear bi-xenon front lights, clear xenon fogs, and clear l.e.d wing mirror side repeaters!
Cheers!!!

The swap it self is very basic, only thing that needs to be done is to have the xenon setting changed to on by some one with a star diagnostic computer, dealers have one.

As a UK spec car you should already have Xenons, just not Bi-xenons. Last of the line C32s came with Bi-Xenons from the factory. I don't think star will be required.
