vic_sky33 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 hi, does anyone know what type of lights to use in the xenon system for the r34. The lights lense has a sticker on it saying it has been converted to xenon and not to attemt to use any other gas type. so the lights that are advertised with xenon gas are they safe? or will i damage the system ? and that real annoying beep how in gods earth do you by pass it to shut up? ( plss plss its driving me nuts) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/160721-r34-xenon-lights-and-annoyinmg-reverse-beep/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lamps would have been replaced to halogen during compliance so I don't think you have xenons. Are ur lights a bright white color and takes a few secs to come on? If so you have xenons...if they are the normal yellowish light, then its been converted to halogens.

nsm034 Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 if they're converted to halogen it will probably have numbers engraved into the top of the light sort of where the bonnet sits. I'd say your xenons have been chopped out like mine. If so you just get normal h1 halogen bulbs ( i think its h1 , haven't changed them for a while) from autobarn etc. I've heard phillips have good bulbs. The high beam is something diffent but i don't know what it is. Sorry i got a manaul trans so cant help with the beep Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/160721-r34-xenon-lights-and-annoyinmg-reverse-beep/#findComment-2986706 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The high beam is a tricky one i know never heard of it before.

nsm034 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 where is the beep coming from ? Under the dash ? Stick your head where it's beeping and see if it has a beeper/ speaker somewhere and pull the wire going to it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/160721-r34-xenon-lights-and-annoyinmg-reverse-beep/#findComment-2995078 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so you have xenons...if they are the normal yellowish light, then its been converted to halogens. You are correct alot of em loose xenons when complianced but mine was left in and alot of others i have talked to theres were also left. i got the reverse beep aswell.. i think its normal.. yeah its bloody normal. does anyone out there know how to by pass it and have no sound while reversing ? There is a wire u can cut... apparently if u pull off the plastic covering around your gear selector there will be a wire attached somewhere near the "R" setting u simply cut it. where is the beep coming from ? Under the dash ? Stick your head where it's beeping and see if it has a beeper/ speaker somewhere and pull the wire going to it As above... but in saying that I have not cut mine nor look in there as it does bug me when reversing for a while but don't want to damage the interior surround.

Need new headlights basically. Also they usually take the ballasts.
