vendor & tech inquiries

IIRC, one of the 4 sets of non-turbo eurolights I have purchased came from
ivm1 (Import Vision Motorsports, www.importvision.com). No issues with the
transaction or delivery - Ebay Auction.

Note - these are NOT German lights. My guess was Taiwanese or Chinese
origins. They are Euro-lights, but definitely made by neither Hella nor
Bosch. The light output is good, i.e. similar to the Bosch and Hella
versions I have of the same lights, but the hardware is a little cheaper.
The two adjusters on the Chinese lights looks inferior to the German's
adjustors. It appears to me that none of the parts would interchange with
the German lights except maybe for the lenses. I know the reflectors do not
match because I wanted to swap one into a Bosch light I picked up for next
to nothing and it was not possible to make the swap. So far I have no
complaints with these, but I would definitely lube the adjusters with
silicon grease or never-seize or something to reduce the likelihood of
future problems.

You need

relays
harness (you can fab your own - I fabricated one and bought two from
suvlights)
rubber grommet (for where the wires enter the back of the housing - PUMA
had these if IVM does not)
matching corner lights (PUMA had these if IVM does not)
grill (I have paid $10-$30 for each of mine - you have to swap the lower
chromed plastic trim from your old grill)
I drilled a couple of holes and used some plastic zip ties to attach the
"quattro" badge to the new grill.

Enjoy the better light output.
