My HID ballast gone both, one by one , by the time in about 130000 km or 10 years.
So was an opportunity ( sorry for my english) for me to change them and since i have the front bumper out , to change the round oem fog lights with new ones from Adamesh ( OSRAM Ledriving foglights).
Those lights have very interesting specs, cause there are in the same time fog lights , dlr lights and have turn light assistan, with led bulbs.
The new ligths are the same diametr with the old ( 90mm) , but the screews are not in the same place , so need custom fitting and work with the electric wires in front of the car.
I have some pics for everybody is interesting to fitt them in the s-types with oem round fog lights.
My car was like this before.
We have to start first with the plastic cover over the headlights
Then with the help of a friend and the headlights open , push the windscreen cleaner to work and catch the headlights cleaner axle ( not the cover you will brake it ).
Next step is to unsrew all the screw from the front cover in the bottom of the engine including and the two in the wheelarch sides of the car.
After that there is a bolt behind of the headlight, this with the arrow in both sides 10 mm.
A good way to not loose the bolt ,is to put a small piece of paper inside the tool.
There are two more bolts one per side,
(10 mm) behind the wheelarch were the arrow shows.
Follow the pics with these bolts.
You can take out the bumper now after the disconnection of the power wires for the fog ligths.
This is if you want to work with the headlights.
Now the DLR. ( Follow the connecting instructions in the package)
like this , is the oem fog lights from behind.
We have to take them out.
Inclounding the plastic support.
Cut the plastic almost in the midle , were the 90 mm are fitting inside.
Now custom fitt them to the bumper.
When you connect them to the power , must look like this.
In the car, i put the wires from the set, under the front fuse box, and i found a place for the 10A fuse in the fuse box.
The ingnition power 12v is coming from fuse nr. 38.
And the ground in the chasiss.
For the turn light assistant you will need 3 relais to take power from the left turn light , right turn light and city light.
This is the way you have to connect them.
This is how the car looking with the dlrs.
This is with the fog lights.
This with the left turn light.
And this with the right turn light.
I forget to say that with this opportunity, i install and the lower mesh grill. ( from Adamesh too).
