Where to buy connectors for Smileys / City Lights??

[QUiKSR20]

Anyone know where I can buy connectors for Smileys / City Lights??
Can I just goto a US dealer or is there a place online I can buy for less?

I have searched and cant find much the depo wiring adapters are a joke.

That rts link you posted has the part numbers. Get them from anywhere you would usually get bmws parts - Pelican, Blunttech, the dealer etc.

They look like just the connectors though, Not the pins that go inside.

look again - by the way you get these connectors and pins from a wrecker - if you check realoem.com you will see that they are used in multiple applications on multiple bmws, there's also a guy selling used ones in the for sale section, or you could get new stuff like I mentioned before

Cool ill look for the used ones, I did search but didnt come up with much. Just want to install my new lights correctly.

So im looking into placing my order from http://www.bmwmercedesparts.com/ or wherever but still unsure what the hell I need..

Do I need 2 of each of the below connectors ( one each per side )

• White Connector 61-13-1-378-417
• Grey Connector 61-13-1-378-418
• Yellow Connector 61-13-1-378-419

And then pick whether I want to use skinny or thicker wire from here ?

• Circular Connector 1.0-2.5 MM² 61-13-0-007-446
  (This is the bigger wire & recommended)
  .
• Circular Connector 0.5-1.0 MM² 61 –13-0-007-445
  (This is the smaller wire)

And then buy 2 of those per connector for a total of 12 ?

Unfortunately nobody goes into detail about this I have searched up and down google, this forum etc and have not found definitive answers.

My euro smileys use one yellow connector for the low beam and one white one for the high beams (so get 2 of each). Not sure which wires to get - probably doesn't matter?. As for the city lights, I'm not sure how they're wired up stock - I have these:

So you think just 2 of those wires per connector? They look like they slide into the connectors.
