CDXs have xenon lights as standard though thought the two went hand in hand on the estates?

My CDX does not have auto level H/L's.

Prefacelift CDX did not have HIDs, only facelift CDX. Only HID cars have auto headlight levelling

My bad Recalled reading something in parkers about equipment levels. I've never owned/driven a pre f/l so am kind of aware they exist, but never really consider them...

I've retrofitted maybe four self-levelling sets to cars now, it's a very easy mod.

you need :-

2 x rear damper
2 x rear spring
air compressor
loom from under rear seat to sensor on rear axle
sensor on rear axle

and the air pipes :-

the long air pipe front-to-rear
the tee-piece
the clips to hold the air pipe on
the individual air pipes to left and right

it all bolts straight on.

the compressor goes under the front wing.
the compressor wiring will already be there ( I've never seen a car without it ). It will be hovering around the hole in the inner wing at the base of the air filter.
the air pipe largely clips into the fuel/brake hose supports
the rear loom plugs in to the main harness under the rear seat and then goes to the sensor.

with all the bits to hand, fitting is a four-hour job.

Might need to fit the compressor relay in the dash, in addition? I don't believe my MV6 has this relay fitted.

[albitz]

Any info on which relay it is exactly ? I may be assembling a kit here.Should have everything except the shocks.

It's one of the smaller relays in the panel next to the cabin fuse box. On an Elite there'll be two of the small relays, one operates the main bean lights, the other the self levellling pump. Can't remember which is which though. I will double check later.

[Kevin Wood]

Main bean, as opposed to borlotti bean, kidney bean or haricot bean.

Oh, hang on, I've got an edit button. 

[albitz]

Thanks kevin,I should be able to work it out from there.
I know my baked beans from my runner beans.

As Kev says, relay box next to cabin fusebox Left hand one, main beam, S/L other one. Both the same 

[albitz]

No pic. your slacking.

Got a pic of the relay box with relays but you`re not that thick that you need to see it are you

[albitz]

Not saying I need it,just that you dont usually wait to be asked.That holiday in the sun has had after effects methinks.
