Not all cars have Xenons. Some have Halogens depending on market and model.

according to EU law, you need
1) a new bumper with teh washing stuff for the headlamps
2) sensors that automatically regulate the xenon light..

a very very expensive adventure - i would not do it..

Had to purchase xenon for mine. I think it's an extra $900.

Yes, when you ask an Italian for directions, they will tell you even when they don't actually know.
