hey guys, 2 questions about our lights

1 Does anyone know where to get our H4 connectors from?
Mine are crap and i want to replace them with like for like.
I found this
http://www.eagleday.com/heco.html
[img]http://us.st12.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/eagleday_2008_50606685[/img] not sure why that image doesnt work
but the wires dont come out at 90 degrees and its not black.
I dont want to cut the loom unless i have to, or make any changes, I will remove the original metal clips with a screw driver, clean up the wire and check it all is ok and then crimp into the new OE connectors.

After i have done this i need to get some of these, which will solve my problem

Hi

Try these people:-

http://www.vehicle-wiring-products.eu/VWP-onlinestore/lighting/headlamps.php

They do them with both normal straight out connectors and the flag type in black that you want.

All the best

Keith

I forgot to say that I took delivery of the headlight connectors the day I fixed my fog lights, 1 day after ordering them, very impressed.
They are not exactly the same as the original and had a problem trying to crimp the flag connectors. In the end I just crimped 1 earth and pushed the other wires in with the original flags into the new connectors.
I have access to the following tool,
http://www.csedistributors.com/acatalog/info_1045.html
http://www.csedistributors.com/acatalog/info_1048.html
which has changeable heads / teeth.
I can crimp the bottom end of the flag, but if i try the top end it crushed and sheers the flag nearly in half. Can you get narrower teeth / heads for the crimpers?
Any suggestions?

Hi

One of those is for insulated terminals. Not sure on the other.

All the best

yer the other is for doing the wire crimping, does a nice job, looks like a factory done crimp, as in it loops over to join in the middle.
