Factory fitted HIDs already have their own levelling system ...... that's why the light switch doesn't have the 1 2 3 that a lesser spec car has :y

I am not sure the 2 are related.
Does the Elite not have level sensors on passenger side front and rear for the lights like other models?

i thought it sorted the headlights out in relation to the suspension? meaning it was controlled together?

nope ............ two separate systems ;)
there are level controller on the passenger side for the headlights, and a third on the rear driver's for the suspension - but 2 systems.

well then is it as easy as fitting a standard light switch so the can be adjusted?

You're removing the self levelling suspension
the lights are self levelling via their own controller
The two systems are separate from each other

Absolutely nothing is required with the headlights. They adjust automatically to the attitude of the car, regardless off what suspension is fitted.
Just remove and re fit the suspension as required, and carry in as normal. There's is nothing to be done with the hid system.
If the headlights are then at the incorrect height, adjust them via the head light adjusters on top of the headlights as normal.
....did I mention, there is no need to fiddle with the head light levelling system.
Suspension levelling and head light levelling are completely unrelated.
