  • There is much misinformation about retrofitting the stock bi-xenon projector headlights into a car that didn't come with one. In this video, I clear up everything! Let me know if you have any further questions!

    I love this series so much. Makes me want to get an old project Saab to relive my old 9-3 days

    When you do this swap, does the headlight level controller on the dashboard still direct the lights up and down? My estate has this for when the load at the back of the car gets heavy, this little dial can help realign the headlights forward when the car is tilting back a little.

      That function does not work for this method, no sensors in the car 😭. Also, in the states, I don't think we ever got manual leveling headlights.

    Always better for the light cover to fall off in your hand...vs on the road. XD

    I did not see that you would retrofit the two height adjustment sensors - one on the front right and one on the rear right. The xenons are self leveling automatically based on the readings of those sensors.

      Yes, those are hard to find and not worth the trouble IMO so I decided to skip it haha

      Agreed! The projectors make the car look more modern for sure!
