ace666 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Hello, I have got a set of projector head lights that i'm interested in fitting to my car but dont have the loom connectors in the headlight plug for the auto level , so my question is there a way to use the manual adjusters that are in the std headlights or is there a way of making a patch loom so the auto adjusters work of the 7 pin connectors instead of the 10 pin ones? Thank you in advance Regards Adam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyDee Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Hi Adam, Not sure myself how to do it although I know it is possible as mr-venn has done it. Here is a brief description he gave to me although I never got round to doing it myself. The halogen lights only have 7 pins. Where as the projectors have 10 pins. Behind motor more under the hi beam bulb theirs a little plug in connector. Which is basically the plug to power auto motors. Unplug that. Then you have the plug that pushes in your actual motor unplug that. Now in the motor u have black brown and red. Don't touch the red one. On the auto adjust connector. All you need is the green and red wire. All the rest are useless as the 5 wires all together on that plug. Green goes to brown and red goes to black. Boom they work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reading it I have a few questions that Im just going to ask out loud so hear goes , What is meant by "then you have the plug that pushes in your actual motor unplug that." ? Then what is meant by "Now in the motor" which motor projector motor or the halogen motor? Hope some one can shead some more light. thanks once again Adam 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TangoDaz Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Yet another question will this set up work for xenon lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ace666 Posted January 20, 2017 Author Share Posted January 20, 2017 OK well I'm half way doing the wiring, but will have to wait until tomorrow to get them fitted see if it works hope it does. It seems like the two wires go from powering the auto motor to powering the manual levelling motor so it is in essence moving only two wires. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace666 Posted January 20, 2017 Author Share Posted January 20, 2017 Well the wiring is done. It's o so fiddly. Looking forward to tomorrow and then if all goes well I only have to make sure the light angles are correct. O the fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace666 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 OK so I fitted one and their is good news and not so good news, good news is they light up as you would expect bad news the level adjuster does not, so with the level adjuster on the headlight switch at 0 I'm thinking of keeping my projectors in and swapping them out at MoT time as I don't recall using the height adjusters. So not sure if the wiring work was needed for the units to light up as I never fitted them as I found out they would not fully work on my Ghia.
