Corner light connectors

[Dirtboy]

Anybody have a pic or part number for the corner light connectors? I'm trying to retrofit US bumper trim/lights to a Euro car and I can't tell what connectors the corner lights use...

please define corner lights.

i am assuming you mean the turn signals.

if so, please refer to the link. the link includes information regarding late model turn signal connectors including part numbers and pictures.

Nope, not the front turn signals. I'm talking about the corner clearance lights.
Number 7 in the pic.

EDIT: should be side marker lights...

That's funny, you're doing the reverse of what I'm doing. I have those connecters on my car. I need the euro turn signals connectors. Want to trade?

LOL, I'm doing mine temporarily. I might be able to get you a handful of those connectors from the junkyard if you want to trade. I can also get you the part number as well.

I won't be putting my M-Tech1/euro bumpers on for a 2 more weeks. I would still like to buy those turn signal connectors. I would also like the part number since I can't find it anywhere, even on realoem.com

OK, I got the side marker bulb sockets. I still need the connectors. Can someone just go take a couple pics of theirs?

Here's what they plug in to...

i will take pics of mine asap. not sure about today, but for sure tomorrow.

i have my connectors sitting around because i have euro trim and connected the wires directly to the city lights of the smilies.

i actually did like a 30 min search of trying to find them, its weird that there aren't any part numbers available online.....

hopefully this helps.

Thanks man!!! That does help a bit. I just wish the pics on Realoem were better so I could find out the part number. The almost look like car speaker connectors they use over here. Hopefully I'll find something out soon.

Thanks again!!

i have euro smilies and did not have the connector for the high beams. so what i did was connect some speaker quick disconnect female plugs and and slip those onto the pins. i then used a pair of pliers and squeezed them as tight as possible onto the pins.

on one side of the quick disconnect connector is where you crimp the wire and the other side gets slipped onto the pin and crimped with pliers to stay on.

this is an EXAMPLE of the connector i used:

i will take pics of how i did my wiring for the high beams when weather permits.

this method is always an alternate option to using the actual connector. i used this method couple of months ago and it is still holding up.

BTW. If you don't want those side marker connectors any more I'll take them off your hands...;-)
