  • LEDs that work with E30 H1 headlights, Need factory bullet style connectors

    So I've found an H1 LED bulb that will fit into the stock headlight sockets, and still enable the use of the cap. In order to make them work, you need to run a CAN-BUS that the bulb company will provide, however it needs to be wired in. It would be super simple if some jumper wires were made using the correct factory bullet style plugs, two male, to go from the harness to the CAN-BUS, and two female that would plug into the headlight cap. Once I have all the correct pieces I will post the parts and part numbers. I have the setup working, but its not pretty yet.

    What is the part number for the correct connectors to do this? It seems like it might be

    61131368621 for the female connectors, and perhaps
    61131368620 for the male connectors. Can anyone verify this?​

    Does this help?

    Hi all, I am not new to the forum and not new to E30 ownership! https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49330106776_97cf2384a3_h.jpg In early 2015 I purchased my first E30 M3. I had an excellent and formative journey owning that car, meeting some fantastic people and learning lessons (good and bad) about cars, and what I like to

      I need to find the male version to go into the harness plugs. My car didn't have a hard plug like you have going into the headlights, only female bullet connectors with some heavy flexible rubber insulation around them. I think this was original, but I don't know. Perhaps I'm supposed to have the actual hard plugs that fit into the light housings. It seems like there should be a plug, but like I said, I'm not sure.
