What you need:
-2 x evo plug
-Soldering iron and solder
-Standard size electrical wire (I used 15AWG which is 2mm thick)
-1 x 25Watt, 15 Ohm, 1% resistors (only need 1 resistor, video of connecting can be found on my channel)
-Crimping tool
-Wirestripper (optional)
-Wirecutter (optional, can be scissors)

I put up a video for connecting the resistor, make sure you check that out as well!

[@programmerOssama]

is it important to put thr resistors

[@SincerelyYoursLIVE]

Ossama Mohamed you will get a dash light thats it

[@whitegptjet]

Did this swap 2 months ago. So far so good. Thanks for the tutorial man. Really appreciated it.

[@GhostHawk76]

Thanks for uploading this, probably in one day will convert mine!

Subbed:) Keen to see what you're going to do from here. Already a follower on IG.

[@3mixon]

Hi, I still swap Fiat grande punto 2006 old lamps with this new ones?

[@youssefhamdy2224]

hello from Egypt I did it but the dashboard light indicate check running lights so should to use resistor w if i should how can i connect it in wire .. thanks in advance

[@kichu336]

How do you go around connecting 4 wires from the original harness to 5 wires into the new plug? Are there two cables from the new plug that need to be connected to the black wire on the harness?

[@mbsocialmedia28]

Did you have any problem with condensation or stink of resistance?

[@qylianklippert8543]

where did you get the logo for the backside?

[@Reddylion]

Nice from India..👍

[@thomass3559]

Hele dikke punto...ga bij mijne binnenkort het zelfde doen

[@moazaroiali5333]

Al gedaan?

[@ortegon18]

beautiful!

[@sridharrajasekaran2205]

Can u share me the link for tail lamps

[@D4rKiTo]

HI. Do you know if it's possible to purchase male connector for gp tailights so I can create a "cable adaptor" without cutting original cables?

[@darkpunto]

yes, that would be a great idea, butI couldn’t find those myself!

[@jasperooms9210]

gaaf man. weet je toevallig ook of de koplampen van de evo in de grande punto passen?

[@piecesavenue1842]

Good job

[@1pussy13]

where did you get the black bagde? do you have in front and rear? where to find :D

[@Alexander_l322]

They sell special stickers for the badges

[@SS-mp5se]

Bij mijn linker achterlicht brand de Led amper, vergeleken met rechts. Weet je of dat te maken is of dat je beter een nieuwe lamp kan kopen?

[@darkpunto]

Ik durf het niet te zeggen, er zitten twee LED's per kant volgens mij, even kijken hoe je bedrading zit, soms moet je de twee LED kabels aansluiten en soms maar één. Wat je ook kan doen is de achterlichten omwisselen zodat je kan zien of hetzelfde achterlicht ook minder fel is op de andere kant, dan weet je dat het aan het achterlicht zelf ligt ;)

[@kenchoskerritt1271]

waar heb je die plug en dat weerstand vandaan?

[@infernalGotYou]

Kencho skerritt staat in de beschrijving, weerstand gewoon even googlen

[@fidekas]

Nice....did you experienced any moisture on your evo2 tail lights? did you find any solution?

[@darkpunto]

Hey man, yes that’s really common. The only solution is to wrap it in tint or clear foil that blocks UV light

[@jotace0791]

@@darkpunto Is it effective?

[@OfficiallyMac]

My left light flashes taillight flashes when i use the indicator, my indicator shows the yellow light but my normal light is also flashing... Any ideas on how that is possible

[@darkpunto]

Mac Hogenboom The wiring is messed up then. Make sure you check every wire again!

[@OfficiallyMac]

@@darkpunto yeah i found out after the comment that the colors weren't the samr on the left as the right. Have been running it for well 5months now and i love it! Without you i couldn't have done it

[@ARTISTVAIBHAVYADAV]

Do the evo lights also fit in the grande punto of Indian variant because I can see your punto is three doors but our is five doors

[@darkpunto]

There are 5-door versions in Europe as well, the shell is the same so they will fit!

[@ARTISTVAIBHAVYADAV]

@@darkpunto thanks bro I love punto

[@n.sh3]

One resistor for the two tail lights and no error light? Why not one for the each side?🤔

[@darkpunto]

Only one for the left side!

[@nikko110782]

I like the hubcaps are they 17''?

[@darkpunto]

Yes, 17”!

[@RaeesTsayyed]

great 👍

[@Stijn2932]

Werkt het ook met een resistor met een weerstand tolerantie van 5%?

[@Stijn2932]

En waar kan je die kopen?

[@darkpunto]

Dat zou goed kunnen, maar blijft wel een gokje. ik weet namelijk niet of je er net een procent naast kan zitten..degene die ik gebruik zijn sowieso goed. ik heb ze besteld op internet

[@rarf2142]

Duidelijke tutorial! Wat voor bumper/diffuser heb je ?

[@darkpunto]

Oogbalniffo Linea Diffuser, heel zeldzaam🔥

[@rarf2142]

@@darkpunto Erg strak! Weet jij misschien waar ik een stijvere front sway bar kan halen voor de punto?

[@alejandrocampoysuarez2540]

Sorry to ask mate, but didnt see how you connect the 4 cables to 3 pins new evo light... Minute 6:25 you show black cables but doesnt show details

[@darkpunto]

It’s actually 4 wires to the new 5 wired EVO plug, 2 are for the LEDs. you need to figure out which ones needs to be connected or possibly both even. Ingot 2 Punto’s and they both want a different LED wire setup (so one had both connected to the normal light, the other has only one connected and one just not connected)

[@Block20th1]

Zou je het ook voor mij kunne zetten ??? Tegeb betaling ?? Aub

[@marcinbax562]

Do you have radio AUX?

[@darkpunto]

Bax Baxa yes I do, do you have a question?
