I currently have frosted headlights and really want some crystals...that was until I saw this,
206info.co.uk/Forums/v...art=0.html
Is there anyway better way to do this??? I am normally fine with electrics but this just baffles me and I dont know if I have the right connectors etc. :/

Or if you dont want to buy the h7 plugs and wire them in the car then i could possibly sell adapters for £20posted. Not a biggy as you could easily sell on if you put your car back to standard.

To turn it on in the BSI, you need someone with Peugeot Planet Office then just tweet the settings.

Shame because I'd have done it you for a fiver if you were going there.

wiring in the relay sounds way more complicated then it is tbh, if you take a step back and look at it, all you have to do is connect one wire to the battery, one wire to the earth, one wire to the mainbeam feed and one to the dipped beam feed on both sides Smile

esentially this happens:

you flick to main beam, this clicks to relay to on, power is then drawn through the relay from the connection to the battery, and goes to the dipped beam. this gives you dipped and main at the same time

when you flick back to dipped, the relay looses its input (from main beam) so clicks off, stopping the power to dipped from the relay)

it took me ages to get my head around it, but its not that bad Smile

Please Dont take any of my posts as written fact. They are simply my opinion and although to the best of my knowledge true, the information within them may well be incorrect.

Any work you undertake as a result of my posts is done so at your own risk Smile

Hmmm, that does actually make sense :D, I think its the diagrams that I struggle to understand really, what else do I need apart from the relay???

Thanks,
