Headlights
Hi
I have a Disco 3 with halogen headlights
Can I fit the xenon headlights
Are they a straight fit or not
Thanks

Straight swap. You can sort out the flicker (well slight dimming) on start up through a change in the CCF but that's easy to live with if you don't.

They start off slightly dimmer for halogens to protect the bulb, they are up to full strength in a few seconds. Some peeps don't like that, some get used to it and some like me never noticed.

Ok cheers.
So in short.
I remove the halogen headlights and fit the xenon lights just plug n play.
Do the xenon shave inbuilt ballasts or not
Thanks
