Can anyone tell me where the cheapest place you can find ST170 headlight harness plugs? and or a part number? Thanks.

BAT INC. has them for pretty cheap

thanks. Saw those. Was just hoping that they might be available for cheaper elsewhere.

for clarification, do the ST170's use the same harness as the euro HID lamps?

When I wired up dinoadventures ST170 headlites.

I made the wiring harness exactly like how the Mach HIDs wire up.

and they worked perfectly.

 

[Ray]

did his ST170's take the same VW part numbered piece as listed in the HID thread?
i have no problem wiring them, as i've done mine (twice, even).

 

[DisrupTer911]

yup, BAT actually sent the VW connector and wiring with his headlights, it just had to be put together.

I wired up my HIDs as per the Mach HID thread using the ffoc.co.uk how-to and I wired his ST-170s up the exact same way using the exact same parts as listd in the Mach HID thread.

Thanks DisrupTer911. I appreciate the help in confirming the plugs identity. Time to take the part #s to a VW dealer.

 

[DisrupTer911]

no problemo.

make sure that you order the wiring 1 piece x 12 b/c u need 6 on each plug.

 

[SVTADAM]

will do!

000-979-133 VW wires qty. 12
1JO-973-735 VW plug qty. 2

is this all i would need to buy for st170s?? in the MachHID sticky, theres also...

YS4Z-13A006-CA Headlamp jumper wires

^^^^^what are those & are they needed as well???

 

[DisrupTer911]

I dunno what that headlamp jumper wire is so don't buy it.

all you need are

000-979-133 VW wires qty. 12
1JO-973-735 VW plug qty. 2

and build the harness like the Mach HID one and you'll be set.

The ford jumper wire is so you can have a plug and play set up with your factory wiring connector.

I built a set of these VW/Ford harness for when the Mach HID's were so cheap, but then I could never get a set that was not broken and I had to give up on the HID's. A few months later I bought the ST 170 kit from BAT (which includes the VW plugs/wires of course) so now I have extra VW plugs and wires with instructions...

I'll sell them to you cheap if you want them.

PM me

I am not sure how yours are currently wired up (since mine is a US spec car with a different harness), but here is how the ST170s and facelift lights are wired (ignore the bottom part for your car):

Get a volt meter and figure out the pinout of your harness now, and adjust the pins to match the above. Pin 8 can also be ground, not shown above (needed for HIDs).
