Default Need help to make AFS work

All the headlight gurus out there, I really need your help on how to make the AFS option work on a non AFS equipped vehicle. I have a 06 IS250 with the halogen projectors. I just purchased a set of projectors with AFS motors and ballast





I also found this on ebay, it is a OEM HID wire harness for the 2IS




What else would I need to make it work? I chose to retro these projectors because of how the headlight bulb is plugged into the projectors ( On the side of the projector rather than the rear) Like so:




This is a halogen headlight, but you can see on the left side that the bulb goes in from the side. Any input on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

honestly i say forget it, it's just way too hard. i mean, you can't even get normal autoleveling to work, since it has sensors on the wheels and unless you spend a lot of hours putting wires and more parts, it's not gonna fly.

and adaptive headlights with left and right movement, i am sure it involves even more sensors with steering and what not. that's way too much trouble

Yes you may use the projectors alone without the AFS.

The AFS system isn't plug and play

oh well, I guess I'll use it as it is, my friend said that he doesn't notice much from the AFS on his car anyways. i might as well just use the projectors itself, got it for dirt cheap....
