There was some changes for angular 2.0.1 or higher:

    import {RequestOptions, RequestMethod, Headers} from '@angular/http';
    import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
    import { HttpModule }     from '@angular/http';
    import { AppRoutingModule } from './app.routing.module';   
    import { AppComponent }  from './app.component';
    
    //you can move this class to a better place
    class GlobalHttpOptions extends RequestOptions {
        constructor() { 
          super({ 
            method: RequestMethod.Get,
            headers: new Headers({
              'MyHeader': 'MyHeaderValue',
            })
          });
        }
      }
    
    @NgModule({
    
      imports:      [ BrowserModule, HttpModule, AppRoutingModule ],
      declarations: [ AppComponent],
      bootstrap:    [ AppComponent ],
      providers:    [ { provide: RequestOptions, useClass: GlobalHttpOptions} ]
    })
        
    export class AppModule { }
