LCI headlights finally arrived. They look beautiful but aren't plug and play.
The old headlights have 2 conectors with 11 wires total and the LCI headlights have just one conector with 11 wires. They came without 2 modules that are fixed under the headlight and without the DS1 bulb.
I started to write a diagram to run a cable adapter but I have some doubts. The flash high beam bulb now is H8 and when you flash the high beam the angel eyes flashes brighter. How this function work on LCI models?
If someone knows the headlights wiring diagram will be very helpfull to complete my diagram.
Here is what I found until now.

Alex post some macro pictures of the new sockets, so will be able to understand better, but if there aren't any modules on the new LCI headlights, I think you'll have to wait ...until the release of the OEM retrofit kit.



it will be interesting to see what features work.
