Hello all, First of all i'v tried to search and found nothing helpful! lol

I'm going from prefacelift to smiley headlights and i'm sure I read somewhere that someone makes a little kit to make the swap plug and play, is this right or did I dream it?

If there isn't such a thing, which wire's do I have to change about?

Many thanks,

Paul

you need all the plugs for the face lift lights x3 each side as your ones wont fit.just cut your old ones off and fit the face lift plugs and lights . :)

One small complication, IIRC, is that the pre facelift lights have an extra wire. It's a brown earth wire, and should be connected to the other brown earth wires.
