Headlight plug replacement

[1stTime4Runner]

So I got heavy handed installing the 2strokes today in the cold northern Illinois weather and snapped one of the clips on the chassis side headlight plug. Is there a way to remove the pins easily to swap out the plug with an aftermarket one or just buy a pre wired one and crimp/solder it in? For now it is just zip tied together and working fine but the h11 adapters fit super loose, hence the need for the zip tie.

Thanks!

Ha, I did the same thing for my XD HID kit. I just wrapped the connector with electrical tape. Too much of a hassle for me to swap it out.

I dont plan on doing it now in the winter but I want to switch to HID come spring and would prefer to make it the way it should be. These 2strokes are a but underwhelming considering the hype they got.

Yes, check for pigtails or headlight leads at an auto store. You can pull the pins, or cut and solder.

I purchased from NAPA HWH103 when I was wiring up my Bi-Xenon HID's. This is essentially an extension cord if your OEM plug won't reach where the headlights are. You'll only need the female end (designated by the pins, not plastic part) and they should sell those.

Now, this part number is for 9005's but I'm sure there's one for H11.

Edit: NAPA Part #: NW 787143
Here's a link to one on Amazon.
