Hi CL members,


Please help on this one, i have two cars , 2 gs400's 1998 models, 1 has 04 gs430 headlights that originally came with non xenon and the other has stock Oem xenon headlights. My question is if i can swap them out vice versa

Put the 04 headlights off the originally non equipped 98 into the 98 originally equipped oem xenon gs and vice versa without any modification , thanks in advance.

 

No you cant, so some searching on the subject, there are plenty of topics on that. Main thing is that the factory hid's have auto-leveling lights, the halogen models dont. Also, the halogen uses 9006 harness and the hid's have a ballast with its own harness so you'd have to buy an aftermarket hid kit with d2r harness for the hid bulb. The actual housing are identical (other than a few punched out holes/tabs for the added equipment) and will mount up just fine, its all a wiring issue.

 

I have the o5 gs430 headlights on my 98 without oem xenon that work perfectly fine direct bolt on, but will they fit on the gs400 oem equipped xenon?

 

Mr Jokster answered that question for you already.
