Heys my HIDs arrived and I tried installing them today but I had a problem connect the HID bulb to the car if you guys get what I mean for those who have installed them before. I looked at the HID cable and I discovered that the pin's don't line up with the cable which connects the car to the HID. I've attached a picture of the HID cable compared to the pin setup of the stock halogen bulb.

The top one is the pins on the stock halogen bulb and the blue cable is from the HIDs. As you can see, the pins on the stock halogen bulbs are much wider than the ones on the HID cables. I'm very sure I bought the right bulb size of HB4 and even the box says its the right bulb size if it has anything to do with it. As a result the blue HID cable wont connect to the car. Can any1 help me?

where's your ballasts? the blue cable doesn't connect to the hb4.. only the grey one..
-
Um sorry but what do you mean? I cant get that blue cable to connect to the cable of the car
-
does the grey one connects? my blue one isn't connected to anything.. :)
-
Oh the ballast and the HID bulbs all connect together its just that blue cable from the HID bulb. I thought it connects to the white cable from the car which originally connects the stock halogen bulb. So edmbranch, ur HIDs are only connected to the ballast and nothing connects your HIDs to the car?

hmm.. in that case i'm not so sure.. i know one of my cables(the blue one) isn't connected to anything, it's just dangling.. i've done it a long time ago.. can't remember.. everything should connect fine.. make sure the hook is facing the right direction, maybe that's why it's not connecting..
lol oops, didn't read your post properly.. i thought there were 2 cables coming off your ballasts/hid.. that's weird for the socket to be of different size..

Yeah Ive checked everything its just that blue cable needs to be connected to the car otherwise no cables are connected to the car. I've got the Kaixen kit if that helps
-
if ur kit is china kit.. then it might have an extra cable which connect nothing.. there are 1 red cable socket and 1 blue cable socket.. try have a look.. or maybe u can take a pic of ur whole kit.. =)

-

Nah Wayne my kit is the Kaixen one which is made in Korea. I got it from LiquidSound, one of the traders on here. I'll upload a pic of the kit which some1 else has taken:
