Subject:South African Grille headlight conversion on an 84 Vanagon
From:Tolga Morawski
Date:Wed, 22 Sep 2004 00:07:16 -0400

Hey there ,
  I recently bought a South African Grille and the corresponding
headlights from the great guys over a t Volks Caf� and have a couple
questions about them.
  The instructions assume they are being installed on an 85 or later (ie
separate high and low beams wiring already) however I have an 84.  So
while I can skip all the parts about getting the circular headlight
mounts I am confused as how to run the new wiring for the inner high
beams.
  Do I daisy chain off the outer light wiring or do I need to run new
wires from the fuse area in the dash?  Also are the connectors for the
inner Hellas (highs) standard or an item I need to order from VW?  If
anyone can offer suggestions or perhaps webpages with more info I would
really appreciate it.

Thanks!
  Tolga
