My Skoda Laura Ambiente came with a halogen projector setup for low beam. Planning to replace the same with a bi-xenon setup. Maruti Baleno, S-cross Alpha variants have bi-xenons projectors. Also, the L&K and vRS variant of Laura came with bi-xenon projectors if I am not wrong. Can I plug and play the same on my Laura? Also what make are the Baleno's projectors? How much will it cost me and is it a DIY? Roshun CorsaVeloce Prithwi@NASA

konarktyagi - Talk to this guy on MG road called Deekshit Bhasin who runs a shop called Retro Rides. Hes a light expert in the Delhi NCR region and if he hasnt done it already for someone else he would know exactly how to go about it.
The tricky bit is if your car has the whole CANBUS system there will be error lights to tackle and deal with. In the case of my yeti, a lower wattage xenon projector sets off the error in the cluster because of the difference in wattage. This too was later fixed using some capacitors. Also done at Retro Rides.

No you cant retrofit L&K HID units into the ambiente. The wiring harness differs. Plus these lights cost a bomb and are also Auto Levelling units, for which your will need a level sensor on the rear axel, and a control module that is needed to support it. Better off going aftermarket for the HIDs.
