BMW Electrical Connector

[anto]

Can anyone identify the name of the middle connector in this pic?
It originally is attached to an e60 BMW headlight but I need one that is not integrated within the headlight.

Its the middle 8pin connector with 7pins populated;

it don't think be an off the shelf item, you need to fid the part number and search eBay, or get a second hand one and modify it

Already tried there @zx9 .
It isn't there because it is originally integral with the headlight. But, it must exist somewhere as an individual component as shown in that pic.

I have to admit that I did not look at all the replacement connectors they show, I guess they are mostly main loom / body component related. Have you asked on any of the BM forums? BM owners do seem to be into modding perhaps someone has already been there, done that and got the t shirt.

most likely part of complete headlamp assembly

Kojaycat stock clearance promotions, grab yourself a bargain -

They served me well when looking for motorcycle connectors

Have a look on RS, Farnell or CPC websites ?

Looks like a connector on my bike. I found a pic of the mating part here:

Couldn't find one ready made.
Got the appropriate style connector pins and made my own "plug" by connecting the pins up to the female connector creating a "formwork/ mould" of sorts and poured some epoxy around them. Worked great.
