2018 skoda rapid auto headlights + CH/LH
Posted: Sat Dec 23, 2023 6:14 pm
Hi all,
So I have a 2018 skoda rapid(NA) top line and would like to retrofit auto headlights. I read through multiple auto headlight thread for polo 6r polo/polo sedan but there are a few quirks which I need help in figuring out. I also looked at ciclo’s pdf with wiring and it was very helpful, but again I am lost on little details.
My current car configuration, which is the root of all differences, as most upgrades included 090 max, but I already seems to have higher bcm.
BCM: 7E0 937 089 B
Oem rain light sensor with auto wipers
headlights controlled via bcm
Parking lights function with indicator stalk when parked
Manual CH with high beam flasher and opening door
17 pin headlight connector with 10 wires
As you can see, I have some features of bcm max and I assume not a lot of wiring will be required(hopefully). According to the wiring picture in the pdf, my connector differs slightly as below. Compared, I have total 10 wires. And then 11 is yellow(not white) wire, and 4 wire is missing so I don’t know what should I do with the relay connections. I assume that is a crucial part of the circuit.
I have more questions as I haven’t got a better understanding for this,
Is relay required to be separated into relay carrier? Do I use my original relay or need new in my case?
Thank you for taking the time to read through this, I asked a few retrofit shops locally but they were charging a lot for the harness etc, and unfortunately ciclo has retired from making looms(an amazing service to the community), so I do not want to bother him unnecessarily and try to do it myself.
