Searching the forum for advice on fitting morettes and came across this thread which seems quite useful
www.206info.co.uk/Foru...12822.html

but then got totally confused when I went onto one of the links mentioned in it, see below
206info.co.uk/Forums/v.../t=95.html

Do I really have to do all that just to fit morettes? When I fitted the crystals I didn't disconnect anything, was just a straight swap of the lights

Yes mate, that guide is correct. You must earth the lights on them bolts and that fuse box connection is a must.

Any electrical work requires the battery disconnecting so you'll always have to soft boot the BSI.
Anyone who doesn't disconnect the battery risks the possibility of having a dead car or better still an instant BBQ.

What diagnostic tool are you talking about bud? If you mean what they are talking about in the link it just means, if you have anything connected ie, code reader etc then make sure its disconnected first.
