Xenon headlights - optional extra

[Anonymous]

Hi folks,
Has anyone specced these on their Cali? If so - are they worth the additional expenditure to you?
I am in the process of highlighting almost everything in the Accessories part of the brochure as a wish-list, and then looking at what I can do without.

I would appreciate your input. Thanks
Luke

Not seen a T5 with these but the Ed25 comes with them I think.

My thoughts having had cars with both halogen and xenons?

If a xenon light fails, you're looking at an absolute minimum of £500. If a halogen bulb goes, £12. I reckon the lights on the T5 are pretty good as they are and not sure it's worth it.

Once LED headlights become mainstream, I'll be having those. Never been totally convinced on xenons.

I find the standard lights more than adeqate for a camper van.

also, you may find you have to declare them as a factory mod and pay the extra premium!
