coolcol Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 i puchased some led lights for 350 but bulb wiring is totally different and i cant fit them the fitting on my 350z is like a white block that clips in but led fitting is a small black connector with 2 seperate wires for another part of light . didnt know if anyone knew how to fit them. the lights came with no fitting instructions only some lame photocopy thing which i cant make out. any help would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIXXERUK Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 usually just have o trim a small piece of plastic off the connector with a craft knife, i'm told its quite obvious ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MITZ@CougarStore Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Did you buy the OEM LED lights or are they an aftermarket set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M13KYF Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 deleted the other thread, where did you get your LED lights from? Some of the first ones for Europe had different connectors and needed to be cut/spliced to connect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lomoto Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Just get a multi-tester and see what wire gives power for tail light , brake light and just do a solder joint to each wire on your light ,it will only be a 10 min job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M13KYF Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 how long ago did you buy the lights and are you sure they are OEM ones. I know that style of connector was on the early LED lights that came out in Europe and not here. It is possible to connect them like tim said. It's been done once before about 2 years ago by a member on a past forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcol Posted April 11, 2008 Author Share Posted April 11, 2008 i bought them only 3 days ago from this post http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12885 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarnie Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 i bought them only 3 days ago from this post http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12885 The seller is american so the lights maybe USDM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcol Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 is that good news or bad news can they be fitted to a uk car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 they can be fitted but you will need to cut the wires from the plug to get it connected properly. I would get a auto electrician to do it if you don't kow what your doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3FIDDYZ Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Do the lights that holdcroft sell come with the same type of connector as these ones? If so a link to the current possible group buy could be needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 the ones holdcroft sell just need a plastic lug removing with a stanley knife. No cutting of wires or removing plugs required Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
