Spot light wiring loom connector

Hi

Was wondering is someone may recognise this grey connector plse , it’s goes onto the genuine spot lights , thought at first it was a amp connector but they are narrower , placed one next to it as a comparison

Of course if it comes to it I could just cut it off and fit a super seal connector but would be nice if I’m able to get the connector

Numbers on the connector are

PBT-GF30K 1355665-2

Would be so grateful plse , Many thks Thumbs Up

It's designed to plug directly onto H11 bulbs



There's no matching socket available from the original manufacturer, but there do seem to be male H11 leads on eBay/Aliexpress originating in China.

Bless you as that’s very helpful and will order some of those

Funny enough came across some amp super seal boots and to be honest hadn’t seen them before , just thought they would be ideal , plus hopefully they may be useful to anyone else

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224123559059?ha...SwirZTsyIZ

Will be mounting either spots or curved lightbar on the front A nudge bar, can’t decide as of yet , did get the spotlight A bar mounting kit

Should be fun putting the spot light wiring loom in as see I’ve got to connect into the fuse box but doesn’t look to difficult

Thks so much once again Bow down

Hiya

In the end got the impact bar brackets made because there obsolete , also found out there are 2 x kits depending on what A bar u have

Still need to get the bolt sleeves , my plans in the spring are to upgrade my D3 halogen headlights with D4 xenons and D4 wings ( already have these ) but keep the D3 bumper so I can fit the D3 A bar

Did manage to buy the top brackets for the A bar that secures to the grill and the headlight mounting blocks as both still available

Hope that helps a little

So been looking at theses 7 inch Led spots for my A bar, think they look better than a lightbar

Plus will ensure the bolts can’t come off very easily along with a few other ideas to try and prevent theft the best I can

They work out around £90 per pair , plus see they have like DRL’s , but expect I’ll wire for both parts of the spots to come on together , having the dashboard switch so can isolate them from the high beam if so required

Many thks

Indeed Rolling with laughter

One thing I’m not looking forward to is cutting in the Aux switch seeing the original position is all incorporated into the dashboard

Must admit really like the way this switch was installed but alas can’t find the original post

Hope everyone is keeping safe and well

Was wondering if anyone can help me plse , apologises as always in advance for the daft question , but wish to use a non standard spot light switch , as I’ve got the centre dashboard switch panel it will make like a lot easier

Looked at the carling switches but for the life of me can’t seem to work out what colour wire should go into what pin of the carling switch

Have found the carling pin layout but not what wire from the loom goes to what pin into the back of the carling switch

Hope that sort of makes sense , picture below

As always would be extremely grateful , Thks so much

Thought I would at least write out the carling PIN numbers to at least make life easier

Pin 1 - power in
Pin 2 - power out
Pin 3 - link to pin 2

Pin 7 - earth
Pin 8 - sidelight


Edit , just found this but alas still unsure where the wires below should go into the carling switch above

1: Switched Ground Out (Grounded when switch pressed down) - to relay coil pin 85
2: Illumination +12V
3: (Not Connected)
4: Ground
5: Spotlight +12V (illuminates orange LED when spots are on) - to relay output pin 87

The terminals of your relay should be connected as follows:
85: Coil -ve: to switch pin 1
86: Coil +ve: to main beam feed
30: In: Fused input 12V
87: Out: To spots and switch pin 5

Many thks Bow down

It’s not much fun getting deep into the headlight switch. I can’t remember the details.
Though getting the cover off is easy.

It’s loosely based on an upside down Ford Focus/mondao design

I cut the two plastic bars off the rear of the large knob, this allows you to turn the knob to the left one extra position. (If you push in as well, to prevent inadvertent selection). This gives a parking light position like a Ford.

I simply added a wire between the rear P terminal and the 30 terminal on the cars connector.
Job done.
The cars cjb software was already programmed for the Job.
The dash lights are off and you only get one ding when you open the door.

Refitting the knob is a pain, so don’t do that mod. Laughing Rolling with laughter
