    Switching from HID's back to Halogens.

    What would happen if I don't set the vag-com code back to halogens when removing my hid's? We're selling the wife's car and I had some Euro S-Line BiXenons on it that I'm removing. BTW, they are for sale in the classifieds if anyone is interested.

    If you are using OEM parts that is unpossible. They would flicker and not turn on very well.

    Just installed factory Bi-Xenons. Seem to work fine, High and low. No VAG COM needed.
