Euro lights into 4KCSQ

[passat TS]

I'm not disputing the quality of the Blau harness.
It could be a good deal if one is going to pay someone else to do it
instead.
It would really bother though, since I would have paid less for the lamps
than for the harness.

But, if you are going to do the job yourself, I really don't think it is a
big deal make the harness with quality parts(like the Hella harness).

I think that the really big deal is R/R the lights, but that might be just
me.

BTW, The 4000 harness is essentially the same, it just come with the 4000
connectors ready.

I would recommend to call or email Ken(http://catalog.com/susq/index.htm)and
check what he suggests.
He might have the harness ready, since he sells eurolights.

Cheers,

Carlos.
