^ I think he will install Full LED headlights, and now he has 6C taillights (via adapters like you).
dcgumis has also factory DRL by headlights, because this 6R is from 2009 (it seems to me that DRL works like 10-20% of normal lights power).
current plans: front + rear PDC, Full LED headlights, heated seats, headlight washers.
This is what I know, but let's wait for his answer
Edit: and dcgumis's red 6R has H7 headlights, no H4 because it's very early model from August 2009.
Ok, thank you very much CNK and dcgumis.
Yes, you two are right, they are H7 headlights from the factory, the wire in position 7 of lights switch connector indicates this. Sorry for my confusion. The 6R with H4 do not have this wire in position 7, with H4 the activation of relay J331 is by the stalk instead of the light switch.
No problem, the J331 relay will be eliminated anyway.
It is a 6R 2009 manufactured BEFORE November 2009, the wire in position 14 indicates this. (erWin)
Your wiring looms are already manufactured, all perfect!
Some brief explanations:
In the part dedicated to the fuse box I have provided you with three additional wires/contact terminals with +30 signal. One is for fuse SB57 to power the BCM for static cornering lights (in front foglights under BCM control in case of LED headlights) and two more for your other retrofits (RLS, etc).
I mention it because these three additional wires are VERY important part of the electrical installation. You must be very precise when you are doing the wires installation. We are going to move the original SB20 fuse wire to the SB17 position to have full power from the inner bar with signal 30 for the three additional wires.
You will see how to connect them in the installation guide. (
easy)
In the black wire that goes to the reversing light I have added a blue Butt terminal to connect here the reverse signal needed by the auto dimming mirror. Remember it is the reverse signal, not the power of the mirror (the power must be +15, you have three fuse slots available with +15 between fuses SB9 and SB16, which are 13, 15, 16).
This reverse light black wire has the contact terminal to be inserted into the 6C taillights adapter. I recommend that you install an LED lamp in the reverse light, WHITE LED !, if you do not have it installed yet.
Now I am doing the installation guide, everything will be perfectly explained in the guide.
Tonight or tomorrow I'll post the installation guide (link) here so you can download and view/study it. Then I will contact you by private message so that we are in contact by email.
Thanks
Best regards
