Question about replacing xenon (HID?) headlight
hi all
had the mechanic replace a burned out xenon headlight bulb new a new one (2A4 bulb part number 989833). Right now the new one looks yellow, instead of the bluish tint the old one has. I've been told it takes "some time" for the light to adjust and turn the familiar blue tint.
Does this make sense? He called volvo and they told him it may take 2 months!! I just wanted to confirm if this is in fact true or if someone screwed up and charged me a lot of money for the wrong bulb
Thanks
