I used this video today to assemble the same headlights ! Kept going back and repeat and check all the bits (since it was taken apart not by me ) and i realised in 2 hrs that you didnt include one small thing that was the reason mine wouldn’t stay fixed in place ! Sorted now, so still thank you for the video!
They are the 4 watt bulbs that are in your euro low beams. Some people refer to them as day time running lights or parking lights. The US headlights do not have these and are wired respectively because they function differently by design, the US outside lights have a high beam, the euro lights only use the low beam filament in the h4 bulbs. On your connector, the same position that the US headlights used for high beam, euro lights use for city lights. When you flip the light switch into 1st position, instead of the corner lights turning on, the 4watt bulbs should light up, so the corner bumper lights is where most grab their power from
They do actually. If you notice your lights aren’t pointing straight, all you have to do is twist the lens adjusters to center your lens. Great question thanks for asking
Correct Euros come with screws and US comes with plugs. I replaced the screws with clips from my US grills but you can likely find them in a retainer clip kit.

Damn man awesome work! Looks great!
Euro spec looks much better 👍
Nice work! But don’t forget to add the city light wiring for the low beams, it will look even better!
What are city lights???

What was that red gun you used to clean the headlight frames?
A small sandblaster with fine grit material
Do the headlights need to be adjusted?

Where did you get those round plugs for the grills? They typically use like a screw type
