Hi all thought I would share a decent tutorial into fitting the evo lights to a Grande Punto first of all there is 2 types of EVO rear lights up to 2011 and after 2011 they will both fit how ever there are 2 types of wiring harness the best light are the later type as they are more smoked on the inside so look a little nicer.
When fitting these you will need to buy the 2 following wiring adapters from your nearest dealer part no 51909639 and 51927096 (or scrap yard) these are the correct type of plug to go straight into the light and the colours are the same so just cut your old plugs off and solder in the type however there is 5 wires in the new plug but only 4 used.
Next to stop the warning light you will need a load resistor I used these off ebay

eBay item number 221072370222

you only need to use 1 though to fit the resistor remove the drivers side boot carpet trim and locate the wiring harness above the rear shocker (best place to fit as these do get HOT) join the resistor across the yellow and black wire and the black ground wire there is a hole to fit the resistor in above the rear shocker make sure these are well secured to the body so they can use the body as a heat sink.

Yes you do only need to fit one to the OS light trust me

I have these fitted to a 58 plate (2009) model Tjet and look and work fine

any further questions feel free to ask.:):):):):):):)
