Default Any Canadian S4s out there with Euro Headlights?

What kit did you order and from whom? I ordered a kit from LLTek since AWE was out of stock.

Even after talking for about 10 min. with one of their salespeople, they sent me a kit that doesn't work with our S4s. First obvious difference is that the turn signal plug on our cars has 3 leads, while the Valeo kit they sent has 2 leads.

I thought a Canadian parts dealer would know better.

you need to reuse your old turn signal plug in the new housing. what else is wrong?

Default Tried that- one of the three tabs that hold the plug into the housing is positioned differently

I could hack off the offending tab, but I'd prefer not to do that if there are better options.

I haven't noticed any other issues yet with the housing, but the turn signals were the first bulbs I was transitioning.

Thanks

Default You can get the first two tabs in first...

and then rotate the plug until the third slides in. Takes some time to get it to fit.
