I want to replace old headlights with the new ones, but I am not sure about wiring connection.
Please, could you explain it to me? I have attached a picture for better understanding of my problem.

The image on the left is definitely not OEM, I would use a different image. That looks like an aftermarket ballast and igniter. The OEM igniter sits below the headlamp unit in that metal box. about 4 inches by 3 inches. The plugs...in your right picture, the larger plug controls your low beams and high beams. The smaller one controls your headlamp auto-adjustment control. The two prong plug will be for your blinker. If you have OEM xenons, it will be a simple plug and play operation. Its only 3 plugs and its impossible to mess it up.

If youre not going OEM...like in your picture...don't know what to tell you.

Thank you very much. You helped me a lot.
I want aftermarket headlights. With OEM it would be no problem but I did not know what is the smaller connector for so thanks for explanation. Now I know that auto-levelling will not be fuctional.

clarification: the black 2 prong plug identified in the photo as #2 is simply a vent.
in the same photo, the silver two prongs are obviously for the turn signal.

I have found out that #2 is for pneumatic auto-levelling function. The connector for ignitor is inside the lamp (with blue-red color).
So thanks to everyone for help. Now itīs a bit more clear for me. :-)

I think that if you were smart you would email the prospective vendor and ask for a wiring diagram for your car and any other electrical requirements needed to accomplish the installation.

I donīt know how to contact vendor, I donīt even know who it is. I can contact only seller and I did but he didnīt answered. Anyway I think he has no such things.
I thought the forum is for sharing problems and knowledge to help each other but if I bother with my thread, I am really sorry.
