Can auto lights be retrofitted to my 1999 GT? I already have auto wipers.

Thanks

i would of thought it could be done but not very easily
you would need all the parts from a pre-plexed auto light model plus i think the sensor maybe part of the screen??

I dont think the sensor is built into the screen, I think it's a separate unit. It was in my renaults anyway.

Yes you can do it! Lee_hdi did it... He bought a kit and just wired it straight into the lighting circuit. Worked quite well from what I remember.
I wonder why I bother with this place, 4 years and all members do is slag each other off. Even Barry Boys seems a nicer place at times...

I have found the right profile.... this is the person to speak to: 206info.co.uk/Your_Acc...e=144.html

It might be an idea to email him (details on the link above).

They can be fitted to normal windscreen as the sensor just measures the light levels

They are just generally fitted to athermal windscreens on the 206, but its not a necessity
