correction :

COMPACT LIGHTS ARE DIFFERENT

you can use a bosch, zkw, or depo unit on the compact BUT YOU WILL NEED TO WORK OUT THE WIRING !!

some sets are sold with the intention of fitment to ti´s.. Please check with the supplier BEFORE payment.

I get many compact owners ringing me distressed that their lights dont fit, and what is wrong..

so, for the penultimate rundown, listen up..

Compact (Hella) lights fit only compacts

Bosch / ZKW / depo or comparible fit ALL models, (Compacts need extra wiring to fit)

Front indicator / markers = SEDAN / TOURING / COMPACT... do not use COUPE or CAB as they do not fit

Side markers are year definative. Models BEFORE 9/96 use the larger "black with plastic lense" type. Models after use the smaller "all plastic" versions.

Rear lights are Ti / Compact only .

there is no such thing as "318ti" specific, as the compact range spans from 316 to 323
