Hey, thank you very much Misha. I need the headlight lever.
I'm trying to retrofit my car with this equipment.
I've got the headlights with electric engines, the switch (that is different from the petrol versions) and the wires that my car has. But I can't make It work.
I don't know if I need something more :(

I will try to find it out...but i can't do that before beginning of August.
I think that there is no difference in wiring between petrol & diesels about headilights.
If your car didn't had it from the factory...could be that a relay for that is all you need.

Not sure if this is enough, but here's the 96 wiring diagram for the headlight adjustement (doesnt mention any petrol-diesel differences)
Image
And the diesel high/beam diagram from the 97 wirings diagrams (no mentions of diesel in the 96). The 97 diagram only includes things that have changed from the previous year, and it doesnt have anything about headlight adjustement

I just surfed around diagrams for 850 and i got the same beam length control Goupil already posted here.

There is possibility that your car isn't prewired for that feature:
