#1: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 8:36 am ---- hey all, I want to purchase and fit some angel eye headlights to my 2001 pre-plexed 206 (1.4 LX)
What does this mean:
" Two sets of wiring harnesses are provided, so lights can fit models with single or twin reflector OE headlights."
also what does this mean:
"This is a replacement lamp for cars with twin reflector headlights & indicator bulbholders with 4 locating lugs (not 3). "
thankyou in advance. I dont want to end up buying the wrong ones and not being able to fit them correctly because they are expensive

Means you get both the H4 & H7 connectors I think, (Frosted and Crystal OEM light connections)

But from that it sounds like there to replace Crystals and not Frosted - So for Mux'd 206's
#3: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 8:56 am ---- its kinda confusing isnt it, because the title lists them as (98 - 02)
#4: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: Howey, Location: Kings LynnPosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 8:59 am ---- Yeah and some of the cars have bot sets of connections on them as well!
What year is your car and do you have clear or frosted lights??

Yeah just a tad contradictory, they say they supply H4 & H7 harnesses but they're only a replacement for H7's? :/ would say your safe if you have crystals like ste said but if you have the frosted ones I'd get in contact before you buy
#6: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: Ste, Location: Hull -or- The World Of Info CodePosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 8:59 am ---- Just go by the date they advise mate and you should be fine
If not it's their problem for advising the wrong date and they'd need to replace them for you

Yeah but that would be their error then and they should pay for the postage.
The only thing to do is for you to take a picture of the front end so we know what you have
#12: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 9:13 am ---- ok, hang on lol
#13: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 9:21 am ---- Pretty sure they are frosted.
they DONT look like this:
they DO look like this (hard to see i know):
so that means i have H4 connectors most probably?
so will these lights fit???
confused hahaha
#14: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: Ste, Location: Hull -or- The World Of Info CodePosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 9:36 am ---- There frosted Ph.1 lights. So yes, your's are H4
#15: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: Ste, Location: Hull -or- The World Of Info CodePosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 9:38 am ---- After re-reading it a few times **Slowwwwwwwwwly** It's abit clearer, the advertisement is confusing however; the 4lugs bit is refairing to the indicator holder..
On Phase1 headlights the indictor holder has 4 'lugs' to hold it into the light unit, whereas on Phase2 headlights there is only 3 lugs on the bulb holder for the indicator - Hopefully that'll clear things up..
If you want to double check pop outside and remove the indicator bulb holder and have a look how many lugs it has to hold it into place..
#16: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 9:48 am ---- thanks for all your help guys.
so we have worked out that my lights are frosted. Ph1 (which according to ste206 have 4 lugs on the indicator holder, not 3)
so the indicator holder should fit fine (as the lights are for 4)
now its really down to if the company provide the correct wiring harness for H4.
other then the wiring harness is there any difference between H4 and H7. like resistors or whatever. i.e if they didnt supply the wireing harness could i make my own or buy a seperate harness?
also i presume i can just transfer my electric motors from the old lights to the new ones?
#17: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: amy-v17, Location: Bury St Edmunds/Luton/BournemouthPosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 9:57 am ---- I just cut the wires and hardwired mine in you dont NEED the connectors for them to work, but obviously its a lot easier if you have them
Edit: You can transfer the electric motor but be careful removing them they are fragile!
#18: Re: Help Needed from some pro's ;) Author: MrrNoName, Location: UKPosted: Wed Dec 29, 2010 10:03 am ---- my mate has some spare motors, so il probs nick them to keep the original motors with my stock lights. so there's nothing stopping me putting my own connectors on?
what exactly is the difference between H4 and H7, ive heard something about a relay but what does it do lol. why would i need to add a relay?
