Here's some info I saved in reference to the pix you can get to from the
link that follows:
The plugs are available through mercedes benz parts
Part # 011-545-50-28 you will need 2 of these at 2.55 each .
The pins are available at MB parts also
Part # 003-545-26-26 you will need 12 of these at 2.55
each .
these are a solder type plug so you will need wire and solder and a
soldering gun and flux to do this or you can go to a salvage yard and get
the left and the right taillamp harnesses out of a 190E Mercedes Benz.they
come with the wires already solderd to the pins and the plastic plugsthat
fit perfectly to the euro lamp!!!
Now the hook up.
there are numbers on the back of the lamp next to the pin it locates .
56b LOWBEAM POSITIVE TOP LEFT PIN
56a HIGHBEAM POSITIVE TOP RIGHT PIN
57 SIDEMARKER LIGHT MIDDLE LEFT PIN
58 INDICATER LIGHT IN HEADLAMP MIDDLE RIGHT PIN
Wire 57 & 58 TOGETHER
31 GROUND LOWER LEFT PIN
31 GROUND LOWER RIGHT PIN
wire 31 & 31 TOGETHER
