HI everyone, my name is Lukasz and I am new to the forum. I recently purchased a 2003 XK8 but I need a part that I am having a hard time finding. Maybe someone here can help me. The part is a connector to the headlights without which the headlights wont work. It is the black and red part. If anyone can give me information on where I can find it or if I need to purchase a part that comes with it, I would really appreciate it. Thank you!

 

You will need to go to a salvage yard to get that part as it is part of the wiring for the lights. Then match the colors, solder, and shrink fit tube the joints make sure you put the shrink fit on before you solder the wires.

Welcome to the forum Lukaszkrz,

Unfortunately it's part of the Left Forward Harness so a salvage yard is your best bet.

Are there any identifying numbers on it? I've had SOME luck in the past finding parts based on the numbers stamped on them. Not necessarily a part number but it's always worth a try as a salvage yard might want to see the whole sub-harness rather than just one piece of it.

 

Thanks everyone for the info!
