Most of it bolts straight on.

Headlight wiring for low beam is different. You will need to do some wiring changes as Mk1 uses a H4 which has a dual element globe with low and high. Mk2 only has single element globe

Hi there, I had a little accident and I needed 2 new FG XR6 MK1 headlights.

I wanted to upgrade this to MK2 and reading this post I should do a proper wiring for them.

 

Someone has done this job already? Any scheme of the wiring? Any suggestion? Any guide?

 

Thanks :D

the only different shape (on the outside) is the low beam globe mount at the back (unless you mean XR vs FPV, as XR has the twin curves at the bottom, FPV is flat).

 

The wiring (for only the low beam) is probably just a matter of getting or making a connector(s) for the pins of the new globe type and removing the old connector and then joining just the pos/neg of the wiring as you don't need the relay portion anymore.
