The black and red are what connect to the wiring harness, I am pretty sure it won't be plug and play. If you had US headlamps in there you will need to cut the plugs (that go to the sealed beams) off and then use the multimeter to find the hot and ground (with the low beams on only) and you will be good.

Wrong. If you have a US car with sealed beams, the spade plugs can go straight into those plugs, you just have to test to see which is the low beam circuit and which is the high. If you have 9006 bulbs you'll want to cut and splice.

The main issue the OP is running into (besides being a complete asshole) is that he obviously didn't specify what type of connector he had when he ordered the DDM kit. They ask that information specifically so they can sell plug and play kits but the shipping department can only be as smart as the person ordering...

Wrong!

If he had 9006 or US Ellips stock, then that DDM kit is plug and play if it is the same as the picture I quoted. If he had sealed beams, those spades will slide right into the stock connector. There are 3 possibilities here. The only reason to cut anything is if that unit isnt the same as pictured, or if someone altered his wiring.

Brewcity11 and I just installed this very kit into his hella euro elips yesterday. No cutting of wires required. We did drill a hole in the rear of the plastic lowbeam cover large enough to fit the rubber grommet in. Then, the red (+) and black (-) wires from the harness where plugged into the stock wires running to the stock bulb (+) and housing (round plug and -, ours was brown). The adaptor harness was not designed to fit the factory ground plug which is round. The spade connector does fit into the round plug and some solder helped keep it there. The red spade connector fit directly into the stock + plug and a piece of heatshrink tube covers it well. The adaptor harness runs out the grommet and back to the ballest. Then, from the ballest the bulb wires run through the grommet and to the bulb. It is kind of backwards (wire paths anyway), but it came out of the package just as it was installed and it was really pretty easy once we figured it out. Brewcity11 might have pics, but I do not.

Listen BITCH,I've read some of your posts and it's obvious asshole is your middle name.
I don't make a habit of fucking with people unless they fuck with me first.

A few of you cocksuckers take delight in shitting on people when they make mistakes,instead of correcting that person in a diplomatic way.

FYI;
The h1 connector in my car is the same size as the one fron DDM,therefore,the two will not interlock.

Easy tiger, let's take a look at this situation and see who acted irrationally first: You asked a question which could have easily been answered with a simple search and someone pointed this fact out. YOU then went off the deep end and accused those of us who made an attempt to help you (which was nearly impossible because you left out some vital information such as WHAT TYPE OF CONNECTORS YOU HAVE ON YOUR CAR) of knowing less than you. If you know so much more than us, perhaps you should be schooling us on how to install OUR HIDs? Except mine are already installed correctly with no issues...

seconded.

AND i converted from sealed beams to 9006 connectors cause im spezial.

IF I set up my car for 9006 ELlips with HID, and I jsut got euro msmileys, I jsut have to swap the bulbs to h1 correct?

[Fidhle007]

No.
