I've justed fitted a pair of Angel Eye headlights to my 97 E39 528. I got them from Ebay, they're used and were apparently Hella ones...not convinced about that though. They fit in fine and indicators, headlights and main beam work fine. But the connectors for the side lights don't match...don't know how to connect them, didn't get any instructions with them which doesn't help! Any advice on how to get the angel eyes working would be greatly appreciated!!! |

If they are Hellas then it should say it on them. You need adaptors for the new sockets to plug into the old ones like the one in the pic below. IIRC there is one for each bulb (6 in total).  ------------- Current: 2009 E60 520d "Sport" tractor Previous: 1989 E30 320i SE 1997 E39 523i 2003 E39 525i Sport Individual |
