Standard lights to xenons(wiring conversion

[Big-Pete]

ok, so here goes,i want to convert the boc from double lamp to xenon.
bulbs in question
Double Headlamps: Bocanegra
Dipped beam - H7
Main Beam - H7
Sidelights - 2x W5W 501
Indicator - PY21W 581


Xenon Headlights
Dipped and Full Beam - D1S
Sidelights - W5W Blue Long Life 501 CANBUS
DRL (Daylight) - P21W 382 CANBUS
Indicators - PY21W 581

so,

lets say i just get the projectors lenses etc but no lights/balasts from seat and use all the original wiring from the boc, this is how i would wire them,


ebay HID kit- high and low beam DS1 bulb(that takes care of dipped and full)
(takes the feed from high beam and dipped )
Sidelights,(the boc has 2 sets as standard so we can re-purpose 1 of these)
DRLS- using the other sidelight wiring ill chop the connectors and run them to the DRLs,(both side and DRL will be on when the switch is in side position)
indicators are the same bar location, so that shouldn't be a problem.


this should see everything work properly with minimal fuss.

sorted?

or have i missed something?

If the xenon lights from seat are anything like all the other lights - all the bulbs will be fitted when they arrive.
I would almost expect the xenons to be plug and play

EXCEPT

The extra wiring in the xenons for the auto leveling.
From what i understand there is a box on the rear axle that is part of the self leveling system.

I had the same plan but just never got round to doing it.... I have an old Xenon headlight with a damaged case that I bought to play with, and I’m putting up for sale if you want it to have a play with. You might even be able to swap the internals into a standard headlight case and save yourself a load of money (which was my plan). Apparently its in working condition, but it only ever made it as far as my kitchen floor before it went back in its box and I never even started the project.
