Your CCF file will be set for xenons, the previous owner will have removed them before moving the D3 on.
All you need to for do is get somebody with a Faultmate to update the CCF to halogen headlamps, or a better solution is to fit a set of Xenons Thumbs Up

DON'T even bother trying aftermarket LED headlight bulbs.

Fair enough guys Thumbs Up Have got LEDs in the side and reverse lights and wondered if anyone had tried these. Was a bit concerned that the beam pattern wouldn't be there come MOT time?. Will just get some decent quality H7s Thumbs Up .Or save my pennies for some Xenons. The car IS currently set for halogens so it must just be coincidence that the bulbs have blown this week Rolling Eyes
