Xenon headlights?
Hello, I have a question. I have a car with halogen bulbs. The headlights are now broken. I looked for new ones and found them. They are xenon headlights with an e-number. My question is, I've read several times that they need an automatic headlight leveling system. Is it sufficient if I install them manually? The website says this is done by the original headlight. And do they also need a headlight cleaning system? I wanted to get the xenon ones from Osram or Philips, as these are permitted according to the German Road Traffic Licensing Regulations (StVZO).
kind regards
You need an automatic lighting range regulation and a headlight cleaning system. The reference on the website applies to vehicles with original Xenon headlights.
Bi-xenon means that both the low beam and the high beam are xenon headlights. There are variants where for the high beam and low beam each have a xenon burner and variants where a xenon burner is used jointly for low beam and high beam.
It is also so much I have learned now about not a real xenon but Xenon look these pay to halogen so with they must actually be legal
Xenon Look is different than Xenon. These are normally cold-white halogen lamps. Of course, you can dismantle them like that – don't let light set.
Then it is not a xenon headlight, but a normal halogen headlight with normal halogen lamps. These are widely used as H7, H4, H3 or H1. They have a blue glass flask. This creates a somewhat bluish light. Osram is called Cool Blue and Philips WhiteVision
Light range regulation must: automatically – due to the brightness of the headlights, unnecessary glare of the counter traffic should be reliably excluded. And a headlight cleaning system is also mandatory.
Forget to mention it is BI Xenon and not right Xenon the pears have only Xenon look
this is also not BiXenon, but normal halogen
If it is actually only the Look is, it doesn't need the above mentioned, that then it only touches Xenon.
REAL Xenon headlights need exactly these two things:
Without ifs and buts.
The "Xenon" beams of Osram and Philips only simulate the xenon light. They are then also only allowed in the original halogen headlights.
Forget to say this is BI Xenon
no it is not, otherwise xenon burners would not be halogen
