Like I said in your other thread - it is illegal, and they are seriously dangerous too.  Use the search function.

ive just fitted the R32 xenon headlights and will be getting the level system that Kufetec.de do which is basically every thing you need to fit auto levelling for about £370 including instruction.  The washer system will be changed but again the loom will be bought from Kufatec for £40 and then the jets and pump will be bought from the dealer.

I will be doing it with instruction from a user on VW-Vortex he has a blog that is very intuative.

But I have the r32 xenons in at the moment and have not been flashed since fitting them,  they are properly alligned but obviously at the moment dont have the levelling.

Never fit xenons into your standard headlights,  listen to the sound advice from TT
