Xenon headlight adjusters
Is there a way to refurbish the xenon headlight adjusters? 3D print new arms maybe?
Also how many should I have under the car? One at front and one at back? Or is it a case of, get new ones?

I recall a thread that mentions these arms as a separate part in BMW's spares listing are are readily available to fit on the 75/ZT.
One earlier models, there is one sensor on the front offside and rear offside suspension arms. Later models only have one (different) sensor at the rear. Ah here it is, just in time: http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...ad.php?t=99178 TC Last edited by T-Cut; 16th January 2017 at 20:27.. |
