Hello! I have a 1994 Mini Sprite and am trying to upgrade the sealed headlights. The headlamp fitting connects up easily but the sidelight appears to have a different connector. What do I need to get them to fit? See attached pic

Thanks

Darren

I take it you mean upgrading to Halogen lights? From the photos, it looks fairly easy to do. Cut off the original side light connector, and then strip the ends of the wires and crimp on insulated blade connectors. Then its just a case of connecting the wires on to the side light

As above....

Red wire to connector in the centre of the sidelight ( positive ) , black to the other connector.

Maybe a little off topic, but I didn't think spi minis had sealed beam headlights? Aren't they all halogen after 1990?

My spi had sealed beam lights before I upgraded so halogens must have been introduced for mpis

My 94 sprite had sealed beams. Definitely worth the upgrade.
