You really need to be looking more after the engine bay fuse-board rather than the headlight switch purely due to the wire the system is wired.
You possible tap in at the BCM but not 100% sure that would would. ![[Image: Dipped%20and%20Main%20Beams%20and%20Dayt...T4A%29.jpg]](https://www.vxoc.org.uk/Images/vxoc%20astra-j-gtc/Dipped%20and%20Main%20Beams%20and%20Daytime%20Running%20Lamps%20%28T4A%29.jpg) ![[Image: Rusty-2_zpsuzrvgsp6.GIF]](https://www.vxoc.org.uk/Images/rusty/post%20images/Rusty-2_zpsuzrvgsp6.GIF) Astra-J 2.0 CDTI S/S

Installed the light on my Astra - manual handbrake, large connector.
I got the light with the same large connector, but the pins didn't match. On the LED connector they were set on 9 and 10, but when I plugged it in the LED was very dim. So I tried pins 7 and 8 as Rusty suggested and everything works fine. The only problem is that there wasn't a chance to switch places of the pins on the LED connector. I tried pulling them out while using needles to try and free locking pins, but I just ended up breaking a few needles. So I ended up cutting the wires, putting some needle style connectors on the end and plugging them directly into the car side connector. If anyone knows how to remove the pins, that would be appreciated. Everything works now, but in the future, I'm afraid they could slip out. Thanks for the great instructions!

Hey @Rusty2009 could you possibly repost the picture with the pinout of the (under gear gator) connector, it is blurred. Thanks!
