Another 5.1 to 6.1 headlamp conversion question

Hi. I’m new here but have been a T5 member for 10 years or more. I did a 5.1 to 6.1 full conversion over the winter but I’ve had issues with my headlamps. I’ve looked all over the forums and listings but I just need an answer on do T6.1 headlamps retrofit and work on T5.1 standard looms or not. Mine don’t so I can only assume there need to be som kind of pin out/coding/loom etc. I’ve done the diodes mod but doesn’t work. I don’t have VCDS either. Thanks in advance.
 
Hi there.
I'm on the hunt for facelift bits myself.
I need to go from T5.1 xenon to 6.1 LED - I'm pretty sure that will be quite the task.
If anyone knows where to get sorted, please let me know.

Damo - for you I found a conversion kit that reads "T5 to T6.1" Maybe that's what you need if it works on a T5.1 as well.

Jason, thanks for that but this is the major problem I’m having, I can see loads of mods/pin outs/looms etc for T5 to T6.1 but NONE for T5.1 to T6.1, thanks for your input tho.

Vw T5GP after conversion to vw T6.1 full led



some information is here
 
Just a simple, yes they will with mods ( insert mod, ie, loom/pin out/code etc ) or no ( insert reason )

I’ve seen loads of converted vans but can’t see a definitive answer as to how the conversion is done.

Standard T6.1 headlamp swap to standard T5.1 van ( but with full T6.1 front end conversion )
 
I think one of these discussions will help you.
