hello, I hope I haven't opened an existing thread, I have a xtype 2003 with halogen headlights, since they are damaged, I bought a pair of Xenon headlights with control unit, can I put them on mine? do i have to make any changes? I noticed that the original has 5 cables while the xenon ones have 10 what changes thanks, forgive my English

Lasombra, the wiring for the 2 headlights is exactly the same except for 1 wire on each headlight. you need to make sure you have ground wires for both pins 8 and 10 in the headlight connectors. As I recall, the car with halogen lights only has a ground wire on pin 8. The HIDs have ground wires on pins 8 and 10.
