Best prices on BMW lighting that I have seen. He does monitor the list. I picked up some corners and ZKWs from him.

Date: Mon, 24 Oct 2005 17:13:58 -0400 From: Marc Plante <marcva@gmail.com> Subject: Plug and Play connectors for ZKW Euros? I have a pair of ZKW European lights I pulled out of my E36 325 that I haven't plugged into the M3 yet. In the 325, I tapped into the headlight lines dirctly. Not the cleanest application. Are there plug and play adaptors that allow me to plug these in without splicing lines in the M3? If not, can anyone give me a refresher on the connections for the round connectors coming out of the ZKWs? They're labeled 1,2,3,4 Just looking for Hi/Lo. Don't need no steenkin city lights since I live in the country. Thanks, Marc Plante 1997 E36 M3/4 67k 2005 Child (In the break-in period...zzzzzzzz) Vienna, VA

With all the HID kits out on the market, there's got to be a way to buy the female 9005/9006 receptacles. Once you have those, then you can just create a harness from the 9005/9006 connectors to the euro ones. --- Marc Plante <marcva@gmail.com> wrote: > I have a pair of ZKW European lights I pulled out of my E36 325 that I > haven't plugged into the M3 yet.

There are Plug-N-Play adaptors available for the Euro headlights. I suggest looking at any of the supporting vendors that also sell lighting, Jim Powell, or Umnitza. Drive Safely, Raza

Hi, The other option is to go to PepBoys, Kragen or whoever and buy the 9006 and 9007 replacement plugs. They cost about $3.00 each. I had to replace the plugs on my brother-in-law's 325.

This wouldn't interface with the already male-ended connector in the car. Chester --- "Kent L.
