seats fit in no trouble whatsoever, bolt for bolt.by door shells i take it you mean door panels, these also fit with some slight modification, get door handles and cables to make it easier, and to push the boat out why not fit dash at same time

what do u mean by that?

The Mad Hat Man · Mar 10, 2010

It might have tons of bulbs, but still only one plug into headlight unit.

kuratage · Mar 11, 2010

ok.understood. after fitting new plugs, i need to use h7 bulb or still can use h4 bulb?

The Mad Hat Man · Mar 11, 2010

You really dont have a clue, do ya?

kuratage · Mar 11, 2010

hmm...seems like that. pls explain

The Mad Hat Man · Mar 11, 2010

If you fit the upgrade, you fit the plug(s) that are required to connect to the new headlight. It is also advisable to fit the correct bulbs - you cant just fit whatever you want. As the new headlights use two individual lenses for dip and main beam, it is most likely they use single filament bulbs, is it not? I believe that they will be H7 bulbs, not H4's - but they could be H1 bulbs. Maybe one of each H1 and H7.

Stuarts the man · Mar 11, 2010

Both bulbs are exactly the same H7's

guys, i just got front headlights and now looking for both plugs. hmmm..unfortunately i m from malaysia and hard to get at here. is there any alternative way without using new plug? for instance ie modification of headlight wiring into old wiring ? thanks

The Mad Hat Man · Mar 13, 2010

Not a problem. Mite cost yu a mortgage in carriage tho.

Hi
one of the first ones i done, i could not get the plugs, so just wirsd my original wiring straight into light. remove plug connector from new lights, check where wires go and remove connector. remove your connector and join the wires
