New Headlight Query

[stigeye]

I have got a chance to buy a set of headlights at a knockdown price, they are usually sold on eBay for all astra J's but I have noticed something that has got me scratching my head...

The listing says the headlights have integrated indicators, where the low beam is usually located on the unit. The listing says... 'Black interior with clear, unpatterned lens. These headlights have a single projector lens with electric switching for dipped & high beam, integrated indicators and integrated LED DRL light bar strip'. How can this work on a car that has indicators (like mine) fitted to the bumper, or wont it work? Don't all J's have indicators fixed to their bumpers, or do some have them fitted to the headlight, like the ones in the listing...

One of the sellers has just responded to my question as to whether they will work on my car and they said they wont... so I guess that answers my question lol.

They should state in the listing that they wont work on cars with indicators fitted to the bumper. I wasn't buying them from eBay by the way.

It's not much to add a couple of wires into the plugs so it will work

I thought as much but honestly mate I'm hopeless at electrical work, the guy who I'm buying them from says his don't have the indicator on the headlight, he said he will send me a photo when he gets back from work so fingers crossed everything will be okay and it will be separate high and low beams like factory.

Ok mate, if not I can sort you the pins out it will just be a case of push them in splice onto the indicator wire.

They look like lights for the GTC not the 5dr, think you'll need a GTC bumper for them to fit correctly as the two types are a different shape

The lights are definitely for a 5dr mate, those ones in the ink aren't the actual ones, just the same style. The ones I am looking at getting are 2nd hand and were on a 5dr previously and then removed when they sold the car.
