Just how to make the adaptor wires and is there not something to do with a new fuse aswell All help appreiated

 

[fUbAr]

you need a new fuse fitted for the extra bulb... and you need to alter the wiring to seperate the H7 and HB3 bulbs. You can just splice it off the current wire, but make sure you earth it.

i had the lights for my old car but gave up with mine because im a lazy f**k.

i fitted mine without the need for adding a fuse, must have already been there for some unknown reason.

Easy to wire though (just dont do it in the dark, or break your grille when taking it off)

In the fuse box there is an empty space under a symbol which looks like full beam, this is where the fuse needs to go.

There are 3 wires going into the existing bulb, 1 earth, 1 for dipped lights, and 1 for full beam. Use a multimeter to figure out which wire is which. You also need to make a new earth or split the existing one.
