Bekker's Xenon HID Kit

Okay, so I bought the Xenon kit for W202 Euro spec that includes the light assembly, bulb and transformer. So I was happy got home from work tearing things apart only to find out my OEM electrical plug for the headlight is 4 pin female as oppose to Bekker's that has 5 pin male ends. I can't even put the plug into the light due to extra pin sticking out on the lights.

Has anyone installed the Bekker's to shine some hint on how you were able to install this? Don't tell me they don't work because Bekker website said it fits all W202 C-class up until W203 year, if that's not the case I'll be a very unhappy camper!

Tx.

Okay, just to add more confusion, the Bosch clear corner that came with the kit also comes with wrong male ends. My stock female plug ends is 3 pin, while the ones from Bekker (Bosch) is 2 male ends, I can't plug that in either. But this one is easy fix, I can transfer over my original ones over, but I can't do that with the headlight.

Don't tell me they sent me the wrong model kit.....

Not only do you have an extra pin, you need to move your wires around.

You can drill a hole in your connector, take apart the connector, and put the wires in different places so that it all hooks up.

For the corners, you can take the bulbs/sockets from the original corners and stick them in the new corners.

Are you sure there weren't instructions from Bekkers on the ordering of the wires?

Thanks, nevermind I got it fixed. I hit the extra pin down so my original plug can be plugged into the light housing without it blocking the way.

The extra pin is for city light in Europe, I can always wire up the wire internally inside the light housing if I want to make that city light work.

Thanks for reply!
