anyone know where to get 10-to-12 pin zenon adapters ? They look like this :-

If theyre rare then I dont mind making my own one. BUT I need to know
the part numbers for the 10-pin-plug and the 12-pin-plug ... anyone
have these ? Becuase then its just a matter of ordering them in from
the stealers and wiring them up as follows ....

right ???

Thanks []

Thanks Lee

90 bucks whoaaa thats like ?50 for a couple of cables !!

Id much rather just get the 10-pin and 12-pin plugs and wire them myself. Anyone know the part numbers for these pleease ?!

 

[leetdi22]

i did get the part nos of shaq but carnt find them. typical.

when i bought the wires of vw they were about ?30 without the plugs.

shaq said he could surply everything i needed, but i needed them next day as i already fitted the lights

 

[nudda]

ah ok

this is what Ive managed to find off rogers site (thanks for the link!)

------------------------

2 x 1J0 973 722 <----- 12-pin plug

2 x 1J1 941 607 C <----- 10-pin plug

12 x 000-979-131 <----- small pins, not sure what these are for

8 x
000-979-225 <-----
large pins, not sure what these are for either

Could someone maybe confirm this for me ?

I paid a lot for my wiring adapters from: http://www.fischermotorsport.de/shop/index.php/cPath/28_1_5 or you can get them from German ebay seller BeUnique. Either way isn't as cheap as making them yourself!

 

[nudda]

Thanks kris.

Yup either way it will not be cheap. Guess Ill have to fork out the money for the adapters then ...

 

[kris]

You know it will be worth it [] xenons are awesome!

 

[nudda]

lol yup although I have yet to fork out for the xenons when I can source those []

Any pictures of your xenons mate ? [:d]

 

[kris]

Not yet, they are still in the box at home. I will take some before I fit them. I've just started a new post in the lighting section asking for advice on fitting, so you may want to check that out. Think my xenons aare from a 53 plate R32, all the cables were chopped at the back, but that doesn't matter with the 10-12 pin adapters as they will replace what's there. Just got to fix the tabs at the top where the lights screw in and then I can think about fitting them - without washers or auto-levelling [:$]

 

[nudda]

lol yup saw the post just a minute ago ! Sounds good. Im after ones
with auto-levelling myself although I wont bother with washers ... too
much of a hassle right now and can get away without them me thinks []

I dont think its that difficult to make your own connectors, you have the part numbers have you got the prices?

The 12 small pins and 8 large ones you have on the parts list are the actuall metal connectors in the plug. When you buy a plug or socket from VW it will just be a bit of plastic. You push the pins in from the rear and they lock into place this gives you the contact in the socket. I have made various connectors for my car and its dead easy. I am pretty sure you will only need 6 small ones and 4 large ones as what you get is a wire with the same pin at each end.

I may be doing this in the near future so could let you know exactly how its done.

Hope that helps

Out of interest do you need to worry about the self leveling system on these Xenons http://www.fischermotorsport.de/shop/product_info.php/cPath/28_1_5/products_id/48

or can you get away with out buying these things!

Cheers.
