Hello, I am looking to get these headlights for my MK7 LP GTI (passenger side started cracking on mine...). I have ordered part # 5Q0 907 357 for the proper module replacement and I'll be getting some 20/4 cable soon. But, what are the connectors that you talk about in this post? Are you just referring to pin connectors?After our move to Germany I had to replace SAE lights with e-approved lights for TÜV inspection / registration. Installed used German LP lights first. Unfortunately they were garbage because Valeo lights tend to get foggy lenses. Checked several other used lights but all had the same issue. The cheapest option I found for new European LP lights was 500€ each without bulbs and ballasts.
Finally went with Osrams although everyone told me they don’t work in LP cars. Spent 779€ for the lights, 40€ for connectors and Headlight Range Module. Added a couple of wires and here we go. Tomorrow is TÜV inspection.
Oh alright, I was thinking I would just remove the wires from pins 1,2,4 from the harness on the headlight end and AFS module end, remove the 2 fuses, and then add in the 20/4 cable and connect the wires as shown in your diagram (essentially just modify the wiring part of the wiring harness). Sounds like I will be good with that. Is the connector on the headlight (Osram) side the same type just with a different pin-out? It looks to be the same size, but the pinout is not in their 3D model they have on their site.Made an adapter from vehicle to new lights. Should be okay to just add new wires too.

Please see previous post....meant to get these quotes in there so that you two would see the message.Yeah same 14-pin. As you said remove unnecessary pins and add 4 new. Same result
Just read this write up, actually sounds much easier than I expected. I'm really interested in this, I have lighting package and love the features, but my passenger light has a leak and I really like the way the Osrams look and function.This is what I have done to my car. It’s your own risk to do the same [emoji2]

I still like them a lot. They don’t have cornering lights or they swivel, but IMO the light output is much better. For me night vision it’s all about reflections. These lights go further then the HID and give more light to the side. On a direct comparison to my buddys GTD around the Nürburgring area at night we both liked the Osrams better. With the factory LP lights we had to use the brights in several places, not with the Osrams. My front fogs are coded as cornering lights up to 70 km/h now. Although I’m not sure if it makes it that much better. The only downside I see so far is during some mid to high intensive rain occasions w/ other lights on the street (e.g. street lights, oncoming traffic) the reflections aren’t that good anymore.Just read this write up, actually sounds much easier than I expected.

@ZERO815 how have you liked the change from LP to Osram? Do the Osrams have a cornering light?
