    I don't think I have those connectors....



    These are the female disconnect terminals from a sealed beam plug that was disassembled. There is no need to disassemble, just plug the male from the HID harness into the proper slot instead of wire-nut-capping the third one like this guy did.


    this might help someone: http://www.billswebspace.com/E30Ligh...mationXMon.pdf

    5. plug male ends from HID harness into existing sealed beam socket (i'll go look and see which is pwr, gnd is brown on both sides)
    Need help on this...

    How do I get the original headlight plug (plugs into the back of a sealed beam, 3 prongs) to plug into the ballast?

    I'm going from sealed beams to the DDM kit with these headlights.

    1. remove the 3 mounting screws holding the sealed beam assembly to the body
    2. unplug sealed beams and throw in trash
    3. mount new smoked smiley DEPO awesomeness where sealed beams once lived using same screws you removed
    4. buy DDM HIDs before removing sealed beams (w/o 9005/6 adapters)
    5. plug male ends from HID harness into existing sealed beam socket (i'll go look and see which is pwr, gnd is brown on both sides)
    6. turn on awesome new lights

    If you live in NorCal i'll do the whole install for $50. I even have some nice double side tape to secure the HID ballasts ;)

    you do need a dremel to modify the caps to accept the HIDs, but every shadetree should invest in one of these anyhow.
