Block connectors to the headlights perished

Post by AndrewSumm » Fri Mar 11, 2022 1:49 pm

The headlights on our Bongo keep dropping out, and it would seem that the actual wiring block block itself, is perished. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement, or do I need to replace the whole unit to get that connector?

Thanks for your advice. Any idea which ones I should be buying, or are they all the same?

As long as they are H4 you should be fine. 8)
