Xenons

RARE Unmolested Corsa sxi
forgive me for another question here, as I'm only used to VAG stuff with Xenons.
as mentioned, the xenons use a levelling sensor on the back axle.
would this need to be fitted as part of a standard > xenon lights upgrade ? Or do the standard lights also use a levelling sensor ?
in a nutshell - can I modify a stock 172 Cup to have xenons ?
thanks.

No you don't need to worry about the self leveling, the only difference is that your still be able to adjust the headlight on the dash whereas when factory fitted they auto level. Retro-fitting it isn't worth even thinking about due to cost involved.
So yup, a 172 Cup can have xenons fitted just as easily and any other Mk2 Ph2/3/4 clio can. Plug and play. Definetly one of the best mods i've done.

someone needs to whack some xenons on a trophy, it's the only thing it's missing imo
dont tell the people bidding on these but they are broken. look how low the "iris" lens is, too low, meaning the luggs that hold the lens in place are broken so the lens is resting on the internal plastics (common occurance if ripped out or involved in a bump). this means, like my original set, the lens for the main beam and the sidelight and high beam will shake, even with just engine vibrations.
in terms of adjustment, there is a white plastic allen key bolt on the units at the back which controls the height and side to side luggs. this can be adjusted with the correct allen key and therefore adjusted up/down/side to side.

Its really not worth worrying about, unless you are entering an 'whos got the lightest car' competion lol.

Were did you get your Xenons from, and how much ?
Got them from someone off here, only payed £160. Which was an absolute bargain tbh.
