Hello ask,
We just have them here for the R55-R59 in titanium gray . 63102347698KT $844/ pair
https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...fit-kit-6.html
There is no direct retrofit kit for the R60 / R61 yet. Maybe in the future , we will let. If you have the silver Xenon headlight you can swap to the new black.
Thanks

It looks like there is a 25w black headlight xenon kit for the Countryman / Paceman now. Looks like these will also need programmed or flashed by MINI.
The good news is they come in black housings. So they should look much like these. Of course without the black rings as those are part of the hood.
R60 MINI Countryman and the R61 MINI Paceman:

Thanks and that's all the info I have right now. But very exciting for the CM and PM crowd.

Quick question about this set:
Is this plug and play for a halogen equipped car? Or do I have to buy anything else? adapters or whatever.
Also, I noticed this requires coding by Mini. Is this a genuine part or will Mini look at my funny when I drive up with this asking them to flash it?
thanks!

Plug and play ( then flashed ), this is for Halogen ( filament bulb headlights ) to Bi Xenon . Includes both left and right hand side in the kit. Genuine MINI .
They are 25 watt so they don't need the headlight washers, they just have blank covers. ,manual leveling. Can be adjusted with the adjustments on the back.
Ask your MINI dealership about the flash, most will not know about it yet since these just came out but it should follow the same like the R56-R59 sets. Give them a head up before you bring it in. They will strobe likely till they get the flash update on the LKM computer. See the R56-r59 threads.

Ordered mine yesterday from Flow MINI in Raleigh. They get $475 each ($950/pair). The lights are plug and play, using the stock connectors. The car will need to be coded afterward, which takes about 45 minutes. Mine should be here tomorrow. I'm going to install them myself and then take the car to the dealer. 4 bolts and 5 minutes per side to install.

Dealers dont do that work for free. If you elected to upgrade your lighting system then you cant expect the dealer to flash/recode your system so that the new lights work for you at no charge.

Could they be coded to work using NCS? What wattage are the standard Xenon bulbs and ballasts? Could you upgrade the bulbs with aftermarket 55W HID (Xenon) kits? The legality issues of the aftermarket HID upgrades has to do more with the housing and reflector design than the lights themselves, so with housings designed for Xenon lights there shouldn't be a problem as long as the housings can hold the heat. This might end up being better than you could get from the factory/dealer for people who choose to customize using the aftermarkets.

Post up some pics at night when you guys get them installed.

Here they are all installed, aimed, and coded. I'll post a pic tonight when it gets dark, but they appear to be just as bright as the factory ones. I'm told there is no discernable difference.

Yea, they look the same. And look really good. Now just need the black headlight rings
Got a close up shot? Never-mined , they are right here.
We have them for about $944 right now.

I suppose it is. As far as the purpose of the coding: The standard halogen lights do not use a steady current for power. They use pulses. This causes strobing when Xenon lights are installed. The coding changes the electrical pulses to a steady current.

How to install Xenon Headlight Retrofits in R60?
Thanks to this website and those who wrote in, I've ordered a set of 25w Xenon Retrofits for my new R60.
I see the four "bolts" to remove for each headlight. But those bolts go through what looks to be an "adjustment ring" (not sure correct name). I'm guessing those adjustment rings are to get the headlight to sit nicely with the opening in the front hood lid.
When switching to the new headlights, what are the tricks to getting those "adjustment rings" set correctly. Do I have to do trial and error and opening the closing the hood lid a whole bunch of times? Or is there a better, simpler way?
Thanks in advance for your help.

From Halogen to Xenon - night & day. You will be able to see much more and they are bi- xenon so on high, the flap moves up, on the xenon ellipsoid and you can really see far ahead.

glenboston - there is no install PDF for these that I could find. Most info on leveling and such are linked in this thread, very similar to the R56+ headlight set up and install.
Opening and closing the hood to get them to align is the best way. Slightly adjusting those hex head tube bolts. If you eye them up close to the adjustment height on the removal of the old one and where they were set. Mimic them. That will get you close, then you will need to level the headlights , via minor adjustments on the back side like the R56 + 25w ones.
Thanks
