dude, why make life hard for yourself??? find a gti in the scrap yard and nick the headlight loom if it had fogs, shimples! will only cost you like 5 quid and will make you live longer, you wont be as stressed with the wiring that way :laugh:

when you get the loom its plug and play...unplug the horns + indicators + headlings from old loom...throw it in the bin...wire in new loom to HL's, ind's, horns and fogs, plug ind's and fogs back into place, job done :)

this job is sooo easy my cat could do it

get said loom from brerakers/egay

and then just replace it for the loom thats in your car already, its the big connector on the top of your rad you need to un do, it has the connections for your horn/indicaters etc on it, the new loom with have the extra ones on it for the fogs

should take no more than half hour to do
