    your movie is great, everything was right one hundred percent with the description. in my case, there was only a xenon converter to be replaced, but step-by-step disassembly is great. thanks a lot, I'm sending you from POLAND :)

    Thanks for the vid. Trying to build up courage for removing the front bumper and replacing a ballast on the driver side. Had the ballast replaced a while ago. A month later the low beam went out again and I noticed water getting into the headlight. Assuming that's the issue again.

      On the 08+ 9-3 like this the ballast is under the headlight. Waterproof sealed unit. Unless water is shorting out the terminals from insight the light...

      I want to say it was included with the kit. Order email says part RQ103 from The Retrofit Source. "RQ Brackets / Hardware 2 x RQ Hardware: Hella E55 / EvoX-R (D2S 5.0) $25.00 RQ103"

    Do you maybe have a clue why my '07 9-3 Aero Sportswagon (YS3F II) doesn't seem to have the swiveling headlights? Does that feature need to be turned on somewhere or is it only avaible for newer models?

      I believe that was 2008 model year and up only, but I may be misremembering.

    I wonder if I could retrofit the swivel headlight system into another gm epsilon platform car...
    Edit: or even use an arduino to emulate the steering sensors and other modules

    Ive got the same year Saab, except I have the 4 door sedan. Even the same color. The stock headlights are absolutely horrible on those cars. The first upgrade I did when I bought that car was replace the headlights and converted to LED.
    Ive seen some of the comments arguing that you downgraded, lol... they must not know the dumpster lights that come stock in those cars.

      Do you understand what a projector retrofit is? Did you watch all the parts?

  • @stuartstogdill2406
    @stuartstogdill2406 3 роки тому

    There is ZERO reason to retrofit the projectors in these headlights, you essentially ruined very expensive headlights for no gain at all. You could have easily just swapped bulbs and made a better upgrade,

    • @KenCarTechMeow
      @KenCarTechMeow  3 роки тому +2

      Not true at all. Watch a later part of the series. The lense and reflector bowls are trash on the stock lights. The performance and light output is much better now and still working fine as of March 2021.
