I have a 93 TT 2+2, UK spec, which I have just bought. Can anybody tell me if the car will be equiped with the wiring to run the Front Corner lights if they are changed over to Jap/US spec ones or will I have to "piggy back" them from the existing Side/Turn Indicators.

Also has anybody attempted to replace the existing Turn/Indicators with the Jap/US Driving lights, i.e., what bits would I need? How are these lights switched on & off?

Is the wiring in situ or would I have to wire them in seperately?

And as a completely different Lights subject does anyone know if the clear Rear Lights sold by the likes of Stillen etc are legal in this country?

 

Cheers, Hez.

 

Hez,

The wiring isn't already there but if you understand basic wiring then you'll have no problem doing the sidelights & indicators. Only more tricky one is linking the front fogs from a Jap spec to a switch inside the cabin - best way through is either through the hole behind the ECU or the bonnet pull grommet.

Hi Hez

 

You can have any colour on the rear light lenses, as long as the correct colour appears when they are operational.

BUT....Your rear reflectors, MUST stay red.

 

Had a Fiat X1/9 once and had the entire back panel matt black except for the reflectors for 3 years
