X5 (E70) Ajuste o sustitución de faros xenón de lado derecho a lado izquierdo por LED.

[Maddog]

Hello everyone:
I've just moved to Spain and I have a British-spec BMW X5 E70 40D. I need to adjust the current xenon headlights or swap them from the right side to the left.
Has anyone had experience adjusting a xenon headlight from the right side to the left side?
Or is it easier to replace the entire xenon headlight with a Chinese LED unit (without changing the D1S xenon bulb)?
Is an LED headlight "plug and play"?
I welcome any comments or suggestions.
Thank you.

I suggest you a quick visit to a dealership; they can advise you. You may have problems with the Chinese headlights later on during the vehicle inspection.

I'm no expert on headlights, but can be adjusted vertically and horizontally. Another thing to consider is headlights that come with factory-installed self-adjusting LED technology; these would need to be coded in some way using specialized software.

Option b: this forum has a section dedicated to coding. Try posting your question there to see if someone with more expertise can help you.

I also suggest you write in Spanish, it will be much easier.
