Hi.

Just getting a R33 Series 3 GTR imported, it's going to compliance workshop soon.

They are going to have to remove the Series 3 factory Xenons to comply it, but I want to put them back myself later.

They don't give me much info on what they are actually going to modify on the wiring harness, see my goal is to keep the car as original as possible and reversible modifications. The first person I spoke to said way too much work and you cant convert back to Factory xenons once it's done without huge work.

Second guy who I'm dealing with did not say much, no idea what they will do to the car.

So I'm wondering for anybody that has done it, what is the easiest way to comply a R33 GTR from Xenons to lights that will pass Compliance, but to be easily reversible.

I was thinking it was as simple as buying a set of Series 1 or 2 Headlights bolting and plugging them in and that's it, but from what I understand or am being told there is big work to be done and not reversible unless ofcourse not True.

Would appreciate some info.

Cheers.

Everything is reversible. The supply to the xenons come from an igniter. All they are really doing is using the supply that turns the igniter on to supply the new globes. The plugs are different so they have to be cut and joined.

Easiest is just to swap the headlights over.

Recommend that when they cut the looms for you they rejoin it with a connector rather than soldering the wires so you can just change the lights back over, put a matching connector on the Xenons then all done.

MAKE SURE THEY GIVE YOU ALL THE PARTS BACK (including looms and plugs)!!! I'm sure they'd love to flog off the Xenons on you....
