Hi guys,

I came across this site while trying to search for some answers. I hope you guys can help.

I am replacing my headlights on a 2002 EU Civic as the old ones were damaged and the new ones are actually imported headlights that comes with the HID ballast. My question is how do I rewire it to the stock wiring harness? There is a plug from the ballast with 2 wires (red and black), can I just connect it to any power and ground? I have some pics that might help

This is the plug that I'm not too sure what to do with. I have the other plug that plugs into it, but not too sure where to wire it to

These 2 pics are the main light plug, but my current light plug would not fit it. I do have the correct fitting plug but it needs to be re-wired and I'm not too sure how to go about it

This is my current light plug. It has 3 prongs, and it is a totally different plug to the on in the above 2 pics

You're light plug looks like a H4

The first pic looks like the connector is comming from the ballast.
do you have the cable that goes between them?

.......Full beam
.............|
Ground--|--Dipped Beam

is the most likely pin layout on it.

So from the H4 plug I just run it straight to the ballast? Don't need to use the plug in the 2nd and 3rd pic?

If you have that small cable you just plug it from the ballast and connect it to the other plug on the same side.
