    Depo Ellipsoid Install

    So on impulse I picked up a set of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=8055588319&sspa gename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

    and received them yesterday. I know I know...like I said, it was an impulse purchase.

    Anyway, I had to install one of the adjuster screws into one side of the ellipsoid bucket, that took a lil bit. Now starting the wiring I noticed that the recepticles on the ellipsoid, high beam and city light for that matter do not match up to the harness they gave me. In fact, the recepticles on the lights themselves are male and look like 9006 (oval with 2 squared edges and 2 round pins) harnesses and the "plug-and-play" harnesses look to be a different type, oval shaped - 2 round pins (probably 9005).

    I've already resolved to e-mailing the seller a wtf e-mail but would like to get these working soon. Browsed to rallylights.com and noticed they have quite the collection of 9005 and 9006 harnesses. Is this all that I need to get these to work. I've done searches on many e30 boards about people having these on there cars but no installation instructions came with these and I couldn't find any on the web.

    My car came with sealed beam headlights and their respective 2 pronged rectangular harnesses.
