There WAS a guy on here made up custom looms to fit those, plus the STi ones etc to WRX's.

I'm sure someone will remember who.

UK300 lights are only for a Bugeye mate,

They have female H4 connectors as standard unless they have been buggered about with.. So they are plug and play.

It certainly is dude,

My Bro has a UK300, I have a Prodrive STi..

The loom for STi lights is totally different, you can adapt it to suit UK300 style lights, but it requires a bit of auto-electrical knowledge.. (nothing major).

What car have you got, and what lights are you wanting to fit ?
