So, I bought some euro ellipsoids that I thought were a good deal. But you know what. I just remembered, I need to rewire my headlights with h1 connections!

Anybody have a clue how I can change my stock 9006's to h1's? I can't find any of the links =x.

If you have 4 female spade connectors and some heat shrink you can change them easy, the factory wires are held buy a clip in the end of the plugs ( 9006 ) on the low beams, just pop off the clip take out the 2 wires and cut them or dont take them apart at all and cut them about 3 inches from the plug ( so you can re attach them later if you want ) and just put on the 2 female spade ( blue spades 16 gauge ) connectors .
Hope this helps

one of those wires goes to the bulb itself and the other to a spade connector on the housing the bulb clips into

I went through this and none of these are a perfect connector because of the design. I spent a while looking through here, maybe something will work for the headlights, didnt get it exact for the elipsoid fogs.

I bought new connectors and the wire leads from the dealer. The leads snap into the connectors and then you splice them into your current wires.

when I did the fogs, I had to special order 3 different part numbers and guess what would fit...none were perfect.

if u go to teh dealer they have a generic plug that they use...
i just filed that down some and it fits the h1 slot on the lights perfectly
then the ends i snipped off the 9006 harness on the car and joined the
wires....

now though all my hard work went to waste since i got hids and the wires
plug right into the ballast =]

Umnitza sells PnP(Plug and Play) connectors that work for 9005/9006 when connecting to H1. Pretty good quality, get the job done.

I believe these would work, but you may try getting ahold of Matt at Umnitza before you order.

Before you snip those stock 9006's try doing this (see pics) first. Enlarge the holes to make it fit the H1 round prongs. Do not overdo it. You want it to have a tight fit.

Great Pictures. I've read that advice before "Enlarge the holes to make it fit the H1 round prongs.", but I've had a hard time really visualizing it. Not so now! Thanks!

Awsome, Thank you very much. I may give that a try.

Are you on bf.c ? I swear, I just read that yesterday on bf.c somewhere.
