Installing Euro headlights
 
I have a 90 300e, I bought some euro headlights this summer and would like to install them, I am not sure where to begin, I would like to check and make sure that all the connectors will work with my us model. I know I will need new light bulbs and such any recommendations?

So I don't need to worry about the connectors at all, just put them in and align them right

Installing Euro headlights
 
The Euro headlights should come with a replacement plug to fit on the rear of the H4 and H3 bulbs. The pins must be rearanged to make the lights work and if 80/100 or higher bulbs are used, relays are in order. Here are the positions of the wire colors:
Brown, pin#2, White, #4, Gray, #6, Vacant #1, optional "City Lights, #3, Yellow, #4. The City light socket takes an Osram #3893 12volt, 4watt bulb, Ba9S. They are wired to the corner turn signal lights in switch position #1 so they come on when parking lights illuminate. P.

Ok well I got the lights installed and working, I don't have the city lights working, because I'm confused about how to wire them to the blinkers. The lights work and are aligned. Could you give me a little more info on how to wire the city lights? Do I just plug them in with the brown wire how they were in the old headlights? Thanks
