2021 1LE front end conversion to ZL1 help!

So my 2021 Camaro 1LE was involved in a front end accident… so I ended up just doing a ZL1 Oem conversion I ordered everything that’s needed to bolt right up only thing that looks to be an issue is the headlights don’t match my oem wire harness it takes two plug ins instead of my original headlights which take 1 plug in… is there anything I can do??? Maybe an adapter or splicing the wires? I also been told my computer won’t recognize the headlights and start to make my car trip out…

You might check Gen5DIY.com to see if they have a conversion harness or could make one.

This, contact them and explain what you need. They can make custom harnesses and probably already have something in their records to know what to make. They made a custom harnesses for me for my dash cam and it worked perfectly

Last I checked with Gen5DIY (a little over a year ago), the pre-refresh style headlights were not compatible with the 19+ cars. They had tried to build a harness for another customer and the obstacle they could not overcome had to do with computer control of the 19+ style headlights. Not sure if there have been any further developments since then, though.

Well that sucks. I guess your screwed then. Wonder if the 2019+ ZL1s headlight plugs were updated along with the SS
