IC. Well I'm considering a complete Euro OEM conversion. The only thing illegal about it so far would be the clear sideblinkers. It doesn't have AHL--which leads me to ask the same questions as I first posted? Does AHL stand for Adaptive Headlights, and what does it mean? And what does it do different from Auto-leveling (Is this auto-leveling the ride-height sensor and adjuster different from Adaptive Headlights)?


Regarding the footwell module, I'm not sure that a new one is necessary. I posted the diy circuitry above that can keep the original footwell module and fool it so that no computer warnings come up. This would negate the need for reflashing/programming anything. I'm guessing the light switch is different on the xenons to halogens so that will be needed.

Besides my concerns for the AHL and clarification of it, I've narrowed it down to these things assuming ride height sensors/wiring is included in the OEM Euros (The ride height sensors would be inside the headlight housing?):

OEM headlight housing--projector and lens
Bulb
Ballast
Wattage/computer fooler
light switch
