Lowering question?

What happens to the autolevel headlight system if you lower your X5?

I understand the H&R kit comes with links for the rear, but Eibach does not, instead they need a shop visit.

Planning on getting the H&R kit if it's just a matter of changing 2 springs and 2 links.

I have the H&R kit.
Everything works fine.
Autoleveling too.

As for install.........swap the front springs and 2 mins to swap out the end links. (easy)

A retailer told me that Eibach has discontinued their X5 springs. I have no idea if that's true or not. I bought Intrax.
