Jellybean Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 Oe plug goes to the hid ballist, brown from the ballast goes to a hid bulb , I think I am missing an oe loom , connects to the grey oe block connector to a brown plug for the bulb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraP-Z Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) Is yours a pre facelift bud? the dipped beam factory connector should plug straight into the bulb IIRC, the factory bulb has a connector on the back of it, just like the Main beam. The foglight and sidelight have a seperate grey connector loom (pre facelift) The HID bulbs dont have a connector, instead they have two wires that need to be connected to the ballast, and the factory wiring loom connects to the ballast. So to revert back to stock, take out the HID kit and all associated wiring which will only consist of the factory wiring loom plug (connected to ballast just disconnect this, you cant take this out), connector and wires going from the ballast to the bulb, the ballast and the bulbs themselves. Then you will need stock 9006 bulbs: Which look like this. And your factory wiring loom, will connect straight to that. You shouldnt need any additional looms or anything. I hope that makes sense. On my car the factory plug looks like this: Although that particular connector is damaged. Ive not seen the black connector in your picture before. Im assuming the connector with the red sleeve on it is the bulb connection? Edited July 13, 2017 by SupraP-Z (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) Pre facelift , red sleeve wire and brown connector goes to the hid voltage unit Hmmm , looks like the only part oe is the grey connector Assumed There is an oe grey male to hb4(brown connector) I am missing Will rip it out later , might all come apparent when I do Thanks for the Help Edited July 13, 2017 by Jellybean (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraP-Z Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) So how is your HID ballast connected to the factory wiring? On mine, the factory brown plug connects to a harness on the ballast. A second harness connects the HID bulbs to the HID ballast. Yours may be an older/better design of kit. I guess ripping it out will enable to you figure out what is what and hopefully find the plug you need, unless its been chopped out and replaced for something else...which is possible but unlikely Edited July 13, 2017 by SupraP-Z (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
