Xenon headlight on the S

Post by girlR1100S »

A big improvement for my S has been a Xenon headlight recently.
Even if it's daytime you can already notice that it works by the reflection you get from the small signs aside the road.

At nighttime the Xenon is giving a really bright white light.

A friend in Holland sold me the kit and installed it for me.
When I left his house after mounting the kit it was really bad wheather with poor view. After some miles I looked at the speed I was driving with.. I drove a 130 kmh, and I know before I wouldn't have done that because of the bad view I would have had.

The costs of the kit where affordable. And it is easy to do yourself.
I try to dig up some pictures later, I have to search throught the dutch forum database but that is not reachable at the moment.

I have to ask him if he is interested in shipping it to England and I will also ask him what the price would be..

I will look out for him on my msn and will get back to you when I find out.

I spoke with the guy I bought it from.
He sells it for EUR 200.- and he is willing to write a how to install it yourself manual for it.

It is not that difficult, I helped him do this and we fixed it in 2.5 hours.
Most time was spend in removing all the plasticwork from the S.

The price includes the transportcosts.

And it is not a company, it is a private person, who happens to make a deal with Xenon due to payment difficulties of another person who rents a building from him. He didn't get the money for the rent, so he settled for Xenon... luckily for me!

If you wish I can mail you his emailadress, so you can contact him.
You can mention my nickname.. he knows I told this on the English Boxerforum.
