172 ph1 lights on a standard ph1??

[ClioKL]

I have just bought myself some of the twin headlight 172 ph1 lights thinking (wrongly) that they would be a direct plug and play replacement for the standard lights on a ph1...

Instead of me just selling them on again, is there any way of altering the wiring of my car, or fitting the standard bulbs into the 172 lights??

The two problems are that the main beam has three connections on the standard lights, and only two on the 172's, and the sidelight just doesnt seem to fit in the hole provided...

Any ideas people?? Anyone done it before??

Surely someone knows of a way around this??

Since writing this ive found some earlier cars dont have the provisions for the fuse to be added in the fuse box.

Where abouts are you from mate? If you happen to be local, I'd be more than willing to help you out, I've done it before a couple of times, very easy when you know how, and tbh with that guide its hard to go wrong.

Just make sure you totally understand what you are doing, and it'll become a lot easier.
