Did you find out anything regarding this? I am considering the swap on my Tiago XZA as well.

XZ+/Tigor Headlights are the same functionally. Wiring is the same. You need to pull off the above mentioned modification to get them to work.

The Tigor headlights just have chrome inside them whereas the Tiago XZ+ has gloss black design elements inside them.

Thought so, where do I get the Indica wiring harness? Can't find a scrap car anywhere near me.

Re: Installed: Tigor projector headlamps on the Tata Tiago!

Nice mods! Is it possible to use H11 LEDs for the low beam projector setup in a Tiago JTP? What LED bulb and make would mimic the pattern and throw of the original H11 bulb? The heat dissipator fan would also need to fit into the low beam projector. Please advise.

This part from your thread was very useful for me. Thanks a lot. I was looking for a way to tap into the high beam of my Nexon's headlamp. This was to power the solenoid wires of the HID projector fog lamps I installed last week.

Et viola! I remembered reading your thread a few weeks ago & looked it up. The image where you have shown the relay connections was very useful. You have clearly mentioned PINK wire for high beam. So instead of a full trial and error - I started with the PINK wire in my stock harness & indeed it was successful.

Your thread directly saved about an hour for me since the PINK wire is at the bottom of the socket and by by OCD, I'd have reached it last if I went with trial and error. Thanks a lot mate.

Have you tried Boodmo? You most probably will find it there, albeit at MRP & not trash price like a local garage. Today there is a 13% discount on Tata spares on Boodmo. Give it a try.

It was a part of complete harness and even if you get one end from a junk car, you need the other end from AliExpress or somewhere else. I did manage to get one end but in the end decided to buy the complete needed harness from a YouTuber who had a spare after he changed his tigor headlights.

Re: Installed: Tigor projector headlamps on the Tata Tiago!

Any leads on where I can get the wire harness of the headlamp assembly of the old Indica in Mumbai.
For the purpose illustrated above by the pioneer!

Also, any issues if I don't get that and just get the upgrade and make the setting once?

Re: Installed: Tigor projector headlamps on the Tata Tiago!

I got my BS6 Tiago XZA+ 20 days ago, after waiting for 5 weeks for the lockdown to end. Have done just about 1k KMs so far and enjoyed every bit of it. Haven't done much night time driving, because of the night time restrictions of course, but the lights feel adequate to me. Need to take some rounds in my unlit village at night to see what it's really like at night.

However, the looks are a different matter altogether. I just love the projector headlamps on the Tigor and kept looking at a test drive Tigor for a good 2 minutes, just at the headlamps when taking the delivery of my Tiago.

I'll be swapping out the lights sometime next month when I can go back to the city and was wondering if anyone attempted the same with the BS6 version and found any differences from the BS4 variants. This would be my first modification and don't want to step into the water blind.

This should work for the Tiago.

Link - Amazon.in product listing
(EDIT - this is the one I use in the Nexon also. The same parts are shared in these 3 cars extensively.)

Sometimes it comes with spare fuses. Sometimes without. If no fuses are included in the package - you'll need to procure a few from outside.

Re: Installed: Tigor projector headlamps on the Tata Tiago!

Hi drhoneycake,

Thanks for uploading the detailed guide, I helped a friend to upgrade his Tiago regular head lamps to the ones with the Projectors. Everything went fine except the headlamp leveling motor as the couplers were different.

The coupler matches the Safari motor, but the motor doesn't fit on to the Tigor headlamps.
Did you by any chance find a solution for the same.
