H4 To H7 Upgrade

[Lubrown]

Much Appreciated, any reasons why you would recommend them over others?

I was looking at these:

T6.1 Look Volledig LED Matrix Koplampen voor VW Transporter T6

Bent u op zoek naar auto onderdelen, automaterialen en accessoires? Dan kunt u deze voordelig online bestellen bij www.DejavuCars.eu

www.dejavucars.eu

Would be curious to your opinion. The units on the Transporter HQ site seem to be quite a bit more expensive.

As Cuffy says, THQ are a well known seller where I am and these lights will be their fourth(?) generation so they should know what they are up to with them.

Having said that those others you list also look good and are based in your country so probably better value for you now import duties are back on the menu - didn’t originally spot you were in the Netherlands (or Netherworld as my auto-correct kept wanting to call it!).

Is there anyone round the Sheffield area with vcds that could enable the full beam & dipped to be on together??

I'm also after someone to do this, in the Midlands/Tamworth way?

You can do it with Carista - you get a free month to make changes when you buy it, just need to register for the beta version.

I think after the month, if you cancel the subscription then it still works as a reader, you just can't make changes. I might be wrong on that though, I've not needed to use it since.

@CAB - How do you register for the beta version of Carista?

It's English when I click on it.
Not a great deal of help I know.

Hi!

These are the H7 headlights 7E1.941.006.F

Final check, these will fit my T6 TSI 2017 with OEM H4 lights?
Pretty sure they are plug & play, but just wan to make sure they fit.

I finally got myself a set, seller is about to ship them. Just a quick check with the folks here;

Thanks!

That’s the kiddies!

They are Plug and Play, but you’ll want to code the dipped beam to remain on when main beam is activated.

hahaha I had to laugh, not a native speaker here...

Thanks! I have already used my Carista EVO to do this with my H4's which worked fine!

Marked as left hand drive though.

Correct! I am in the Netherlands

 

[peter1987t]

And they are in:
Build in 2019, revision "F" headlights.

Very good condition

But, my TSI has an issue with one of its inlet valves, it seems to not close properly... So the joy of buying these is .. well lost. Looking at a revision of the head.

Happy that i didnt buy the THQ LEDs at the moment

So many posts about the DRL compatible LEDs.

I figured since it such a pain... To switch drl's first.

It seems like the Twenty20 have good results without errors. Can someone confirm?

Good shout to do them before fitting - I couldn't get the Passenger side in while on the van. Had to remove it first.

I’m confused - you got both filaments to light at once? If so, do they not get way to hot?
Or am I being a bit dim?

Yeah, you're being a bit H4
Just pulling your leg.

High and Low are seperate bulbs. The Low switch off when you hit High but much better to code so that Low stay on when you hit High.

lol.

No I appreciate that with the H7 light units, but the comment suggested Peter had used Carista to do it with his H4’s which, assuming they’re like mine, are both high and low beam from the same bulb/reflector. The only other lights in my H4 housing are the DRL and indicator.
