No it doesnt have the same plug. The easiest way to convert to HIDs is to...
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/9514/beamcombo.jpg"></center><p>go with a retrofit kit. You already have very good projectors (Euro Projectors on the U.S halogen cars) so the bulb and ballast is a plug-n-play. It is a bit tight but it can be done without taking the bumper off.
Make sure the kit uses German HID bulbs like Philips. You might like to know that if you switch to HID4LESS stage 3 HID kit, you wont get the "bulb out" light. I dont know why but the Auerswald ballast doesnt trip the Bulb-Out light.
The last perk of converting to HIDs from halogens is you can manually adjust the light angle up a bit to corect the distance of the beam.
