HID

are you using an aftermarket kit or are those OEM ballasts?

HID housing has a wiring harness routing the low-beam power to the ballast.

I recently transfered these to my 99 housings. I have one ore two more of these sitting in my basement. I bought them all via ebay. They all have broken plastic inner parts due to accidents, but the outer housing are in great shape. I plan on re-selling these on ebay. I may have another ballast and bulb. Let me know...
