I am on the search for anti-roll bars for my Cupra. I finally decided to go for H&R due to their history and R&D. I noticed that it is the only company that takes into account and offers two different sets of anti-roll bars, one for cars with standard lights and one for cars with xenon lights. The first set (standard) of bars has a thickness of 28mm in front and 24mm in the back, while the second (xenon) is 26mm (front) and 22mm (back).

Others like APR and BSH offer anti-roll bars with a standard thickness (front and back) of 27 - 28mm without taking into account the lights.

For H&R I suspect that the one for the xenon lights is softer while the one for the standard lights is stiffer. I am wondering how the bars may affect the xenon lights on my car and how crucial this can be. I need a professional opinion/advice.

Thanks in advance.

I'm only guessing, but could the difference be due to the extra sensors/electronics on the axle/suspension to enable the auto-levelling to work? Seems odd that there would be any significant difference caused by the light units themselves.
 
which arb's did you get in the end and could you feel any difference?
 
I went for the thicker H&R set and it was one of the best additions to my car, exceptional handling, great feeling on the road, much more confidence in every turn, its like I uprated my suspension overall. One step closer to a racing machine :drool:
