Price to have new bi-xenon headlights programmed to my car?

[tomahawk297]

When I got new headlights put in last month I guess that they didn't program them to the ECU because they have not worked at all but the blinkers work. Assuming they have to be programmed to the ECU, what do you think that a mechanic would usually charge to do this? Couldn't find any info on this online, thank you in advance!

Unless mechanic has access to VAG tools he can't do any coding or he will add resistors to mimic 55 watts pull. Its a 2 minutes job if you or anyone near you has VAG-COM. Check in the local sub forum.

Most people with a vagcom cable would help you out for a six pack.
