A well built VW
Come on Guys I have these in a box in the garage and want to get them fitted ASAP Help me pLEASE!!!!!when i fitted mine, i used spade connectors to go onto the bulb terminals with rubber insulation round the connectors.
Just a case of working out which wire is the dipped beam and which is full beam, then wiring them to the relevant bulb. I didnt re-use the existing ground wires, instead I made my own and used existing bolt holes as grounding points.
Indicators and sidelights are the standard connectors, so no rewiring to be done there.
Its effectively just 4 wires per unit, two which are grounds. Trial and error will see you right in the case of working out which is dipped and main.
As for the wire itself, I bought 15amp (i think, cant really remember) wire on a reel from Halfords, but to be honest thats even heavier than what you'll actually need.

Friction any chance of some pics ??
I had figured the sidelight etc was the same but its the changing of the wiring for the main beams that has me stumped - not good with electric but wanna do it myself looks like 4 wires in the plug i have already 2 of them the same peachy colour so i assume these are the lives and the other must be the switched ones ????? oh im getting myself confused
Anyone with a MK1 172 wanna take a pic of the wires for me ???
