I have run into a few problems wiring up my euro ellipsoids. Ive gotten the city lights and the low beams on the left side working but on the right side no lights work at all, headlights, blinkers, brake lights. Also my dash lights are not comming on anymore.

Check your fuses, if you have a bentley they have a chart near the back that will be a big help. I remember installing mine, it was a pain (so was uninstalling and now installing again)

You replaced your sealed beams w/ these? How hard was it to rewire em?Comment

it's pretty easy. you can just use splice connectors rather than cutting off the sealed beam plugs, which makes it even easier. the plugs you can get from the dealer cheap, and if you have a set with city lights splicing it into the sidemarkers is easy too. the last thing you'll need to do is jump the #30 pins on your high and low beam relays so your lows stay on when you turn on the highs (so do your fogs, but who cares :P).
whatever you do, don't buy cheap Depo lights ;)Comment

What are splice connectors? When I did it I cut the sealed beams off. I have the sealies back on now and Im reinstalling the euros :roll: Thanks.Originally posted by nando

I just chopped the sealed beam connectors right off and me and a friend made some of our own connectors with some banana plugs. The city lights are spliced into the sidemarkers. I have yet to short the relay to keep the low beams on while the highs are on, does anyone have a way to do it and keep the fog lights off? I'll try and get some pics up tomorrow.Comment
