Hi
What is the best D3 to D4 headlight conversion? I like the look of the later lights with the circle & stripe. Are there any conversions to that type?

Re: 3 - 4 headlights
The only way to fit D4 lights in a D3 that I know of is to replace bonnet and wings too.

Re: 3 - 4 headlights
Yes I have come to realise that if you want the real lights then it becomes to much of an expense & work, but with all the plug & play upgrades for the 3 lights out there I was wandering which are the closest looking to the 4 type as I`m sure I have not seen them all.anglefire wrote:The only way to fit D4 lights in a D3 that I know of is to replace bonnet and wings too.

Re: 3 - 4 headlights
The only thing I did to mine was to fit HID lamps from halogens to mine. Anything cosmetic was pretty much not of interest to me.

Especially washing it - though it did get done at least once a year if it needed it or not

Re: 3 - 4 headlights
I changed the complete headlamp assembly. It’s the only way to do it - the hid conversions are simply rubbish and also illegal in the uk as they don’t meet the standards.
Ideally you also need to change the ccf with an iid tool or similar otherwise they flicker on first startup which is a bit annoying.
