ok so i've got them flush and chppoed wires on the left and right but still got this disco going on lol

Sorry to be a pain but some one just put it in one message as simply as poss lol all this reading doing my head in :lol:

Thanks

Will

Are They both having a little disco ?

left side: swap wires 1-2

right side: swap wires 4-5, cut the two lugs off connector, turn connector around and plug in so it's technically upside down from original position, should work now.

Any body got clearer pics of the wiring as i really dont fancy fooking my new lights up. :?

Hella actually make adapters to do this for you............

Did all of you sand down the clips?

I just used a tool to push the wires out and then swap them round. Easy.

Have you got them sitting really flush? I spent ages sanding and cutting bits on one, trying to get it sitting flush, but whatever I did, didn't seem to make any difference! Drove me crazy! Have you any pics showing how they fit and what bits you sanded or chopped?

what tool did u use to push the wires out of the conector? it seems a lot better to do it that way instead of cutting and bodging

If you Crimp the wires and take your time and dont do a pikey job with tape, then there will be nothing wrong.

I just used block connectors and mine work perfectly :)
