Leveler as in swapping the non HID to factory HID? There is a thread i was looking a while back about this. The schematics in the factory manual will point you in the right direction on how to make your own harness using the factory switch and leveler on the headlights. I have the leveler switch installed and plugged in my car but its just there for looks until I get time to wire it up. If thats what your asking.....

Well if you have HID's and have the car loaded it will keep you from blinding people. Otherwise, its cool to make your headlights move around

I thought all HID equipped had the leveler system intalled. You sure you have HID's? Your harness on the dash side should have the plug for the lever switch next to the dimmer or fog switch.

So you have an 05 with hid's and no leveling system? If thats the case you might wanna check your headlight housings for leveling motors to control in the first place.

look at the back of a HID headlight and you'll see what they look like (little black box). Good luck
