Yes it's the harnesses he's talking about, it seems he's got it all wrong, I wonder what he's wiring instructions are like!
I've replied telling him those wires are nothing to do with the LED's, so I'll see what he comes back with!

I notice people running separate power runs to the fuse box for the power to the AFS slaves, Pin 4 on each headlight going to Fuse 5 and 6.

The Kufatec adapter uses the power which originally fed the Headlight Range Motor on the Halogen lights, connecting Pin 1(10 pin) to Pin 4(14 pin).
I then ran the AFS Controller power to Fuse 5.

Good luck...that looks like the wiring harness off the Lunar landing craft circa 1969!

Keep us updated mate, I am following this thread with interest as this is something I'd like to do but I don't have the heart to pull my car apart just yet. :grin:

Got mine on eBay, £700, complete with loom adapters and bcm.

There's a set on eBay atm, they're local to me but I'm not sure they're in very good condition.
There's another set on there too, £1500 or best offer!
