Re: Auto headlight retrofit. VW Transporter. T5 (2010-2015)

Re: Auto headlight retrofit. VW Transporter. T5 (2010-2015)

OK, so I have done the majority of the wiring, and enabled xenon lights in BCM. Still waiting on 646 relay for auto lights so this is currently missing. Also no RLS or ALWR plugged in. Only Right hand headlamp wired in so far, The left will be fitted when I refit the bumper. At the moment I have no ...

Re: Auto headlight retrofit. VW Transporter. T5 (2010-2015)

Many thanks for your help Ciclo, I see now what you mean about the mirror. I think when it comes to the auto lights, I will just run all the wiring ready to plug in at a later date. Would this be possible? I might change the windscreen for a heated T6 screen with correct sensors at a later date but ...

Re: Auto headlight retrofit. VW Transporter. T5 (2010-2015)

Thank you so much for your offer of help @ciclo, it is much appreciated. Once I get the photo situation sorted I can put up the pics of my current fuse box, etc. I have VCDS so I can post up scans etc. Although the first scan may be an old one but still relevant. I can put up the full information of...

Re: Auto headlight retrofit. VW Transporter. T5 (2010-2015)

If it helps the left headlight is part of the bumper loom, when I retrofitted xenon headlights I replaced the bumper loom (I was also adding from PDC which is part of that loom) then you will only need to run the extra wires to the coupling point behind the right headlight and also gives you a new ...

Re: Auto headlight retrofit. VW Transporter. T5 (2010-2015)

Sounds exciting! Would get yourself a copy of ELSA and ETKA to have a look through all the OEM wiring diagrams so you know what connects where to get it to factory then you can put in the mods from this thread! Hi Bizmo, Thanks for your reply, Funnily enough I downloaded loads of ERWIN information ...

I used to own a 1985 vw polo saloon (which was probably the best car I had owned) I did have an account on uk polos but cant seem to remember my old details so have created this new one. I hop...
