To fit Pre lci xenon or lci halogen?

Hi guys,

Always planned to fit lci halogens to my pre lci touring.

Until some xenons came up for a pre lci.. Which I bought.

Now xenons are a lot of work to fit and a lot of ancillaries are needed where as the halogens are plug and play and much cheaper..

What I am asking is, do I fit the xenons at a much greater post of which I still need a lot of parts, or do stick with my original idea of just some lci halogens?

Please help...

Depends if you want form over function. On paper I'd fit the Xenons but in reality tbh, due to cost and complication of fitting, I would go for the LCI Halogen and put whiter bulbs in.

Does the LCI front fit a pre-LCI? I thought it was different shape....

Lci headlights are a direct plug and play replacement.

Same shape..

Thank you for your opinion.

Xenons my friend! Every time! Ive seen people spending £300 just to get facelift lights with the angel eyes (which seem to be weak even compared to the Xenon ones) its worth getting the extra bits and pieces to make it work!

I got my LCI halogens for £200... I would have liked the xenons, but feared the amount of work and parts so went for the easy option. Took me 90 minutes to fit them! job done
