Headlights

Post by Magz90 »

Hello
New to the group

Not long brought polo gti 6c 2017

Head lights where busted so brought a new set from vland
But wasnt aware that the plugs where different from a gti to other models
Is there any sort of wiring harness or plug adaptors that can get to joing the two?

Thanks for any help

Any chance you could post a picture of the new headlight with some kind of part number?

So there is your problem, I guess. You bought a pair of aftermarket headlights with different connectors than the original LED headlights. That's not going to fit I'm afraid. Perhaps you can get away with just an adapter to convert from 14 to 10 pin, otherwise you might also need to re-code your BCM.
