Hi all, just wanted to confirm the change on lights”¦ I'm changing from the 'bullseye lights to a post facelift headlight.. so my old ones have a connector with 3 prongs and 2 on the other light and the new ones have just 2 on each light”¦ Do i try and find a plug to fit the new ones with a bit of wire on them and then simply solder my 2 or my three wires (the two earth wires) together and simply make in to one? Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks Justin

Sorry.. I'm changing from the 'early lights' rather than bullseye as originally stated.. Thanks

When I did this I got a set of sockets from the loom of a later car, chopped the sockets from my loom then soldered them on.
I had originally planned to make up a couple of mini looms to go between the earlier main loom and the newer lights but was unable to find all the plugs needed.
