I get to install euro ellipsoids now. Is there any problem with putting the euro assemblies in? Does the wiring have to be changed? How do I get the euro lights to work in a us car is basically my question :D

You have to wire them yes. They bolt in but the US is a 9006 connector and euro is H1.

Is there such thing as a 9006 to h1 adapter?

Maybe I dunno but, an H1 is a round ground connector (pep boys) and a spade connector (pep boys). So just cut the 9006 plug off with like 2" pigtail and save it in case you want to go back. Wait til you have a set of H1 projectors, you'll instantly know what I mean regarding the connector for them.

after seeing 50K of your posts with that "built not bought" ECU picture....

I just noticed exactly what it was you upgraded from... the craptronic 3.1.

Not that I every really studied the photo... but funny nonetheless. :-)
