    You can get the wire with pin from the dealer. [emoji6]

    Anyone with Etka can get pn. It's associated parts for the plug.

    This is not going to plan.. i tried soldering and as i was noticed more cable had burnt (or cable showing) so having brought a spare loom i want to cut that down and put on my current loom

    however i have 3 cables coming out to my coils (on the old coil part of loom) and my new one has loads

    old part 3 cables going into quite a few

    [​IMG][/URL][/IMG]

    new loom from awesome gti

    [​IMG][/URL][/IMG]

    or am i able to send this to someone (plus moneys to have this done) im not very good at this

    There are 4 wires that come off the coil connector as shown in the picture.

    [​IMG]

    The earth for the coil on 2 and the amplifier earth on 4. Pin 1 is a common 12v ignition supply and pin 3 come the relevant ECU trigger. Your ECU will have a common 12v, the trigger wire and and earth which will be common with an engine ground.

    right i think ive done it..

    just copied the old tired looking coil loom.

    4x pin 1 = purple+black soldered together (labelled L r/y)
    4x pin 2 = brown soldered together (labelled E/B

    pin 3 for coil 1 = purple/black (small) and pin 3 for coil 4 black/purple (small) soldered together (labelled 1/4 g/g)

    pin 3 for coil 2 black/yellow (small) and pin 3 purple/black (small soldered together (labelled 2/3 b/gr)

    pin 4 brown/yellow soldered together (labelled EB)

    [​IMG][/URL][/IMG]

    hope that makes sense and i hope ive done it right.. now to wire up to the car

    Are you ok with the soldering? I like to offset each wire slightly do the joins are not altogether when I wrap the loom back up.

    I wrap the copper strands, put the soldering iron underneath then let it 'pull' the solder into the wires.
