AH Astras in Europe have these as a factory option :)

Maybe check other O/S OEM suppliers or you might get lucky on ebay...

It all works on the steering Module. These lights are Factory Option overseas. I wanted them fitted to my VXR before it was built but Mine was already processed for build and My dealer Said that because of that i couldnt even try to have them added.

When you find out a costing could you let me know. I maybe interested.

Feel free to shoot me down if i'm wrong, and i know they help you see round corners.
BUT...aren't they a bit gimmicky?
How often have you gone round a corner thinking OMG...what's in the next 10m???

True that but I want something different (look of the lights)...all in all it goes down to the price of the lights if it's fkn expensive no thanks...(like 200-300 more than the Angel Eyes)

i'm pretty sure they're gonna b atleast double the price of ur regular angel eyes. cause ur basically getting angel eyes (minus the halo rings) with the dynamic turning mechanism built-in.
nor r hella headlights cheap!! :eek:
brace urself mate. :boohoo:

i find my projector beams have a very wide beam, enough to cover the 'corners', so these dynamic turning beams won't help me the least bit.

AH Astras in Europe have these as a factory option :)I don't think these are the same as the factory option.


how does it know which way the bend is?The factory AFL picks up the steering angle from the steering angle sensor. I believe the DynaBeam lights use a controller that has inbuilt accelerometers instead.

I'm pretty sure these things come from IKEA, because if you look at the installation instructions, they're in another language and it seems to indicate that an alan key is included.

its actually pretty useful, and definitely more than a gimmick if you've driven a car with the adaptive lighting fitted, especially around a dark bend where there aren't any street lights

As maxwell smart used to say.. 'Missed it by that much' !

Hence ehy the lights would be useful...streets around my area and Rouse Hill are dark in some spots with lots of bends...so it could come in handy...(If the Price was right)
