ph1 twin optics question

12-06-2013, 12:47 PM
Just fitted twin optics. Expecting the high and low beam to come on together when switched onto main. It doesnt.
I thought they did on xsi gti6 etc. What do I have to change to make them work like that Relay? Switch? Thanks

You need the stalk as matt said, the cars wiring remains the same, just switchs both circuits on instead of the one

bit the plug on the back of the twin optic is a h4 plug...despite there being a h1/7 inside.
so when I plugged my twins in to test them...they worked as they should despite what appears to be a original switch?! yeah need two! Wishes for more power...
