OK, i got my JDM headlights and i know theres a whole slew of info about them on here, but what i can't seem to find is exactly what people are doing to wire them to the OEM harness. I want to put these on soon, but im not sure how to wire them. I read about the option of finding an old Lincoln, im just wondering if there are other ways. Thanks for the help guys.

go to like advanced auto parts or some auto parts store and get the hook up, bring in the headlight with you if need be, and find the one with the 3 prong that will plug right into the back for hte low beams and the 2 prgon hook up for the high's. Then all you gotta do is cut off the OEM plug and just wire up the new one, its only 2 wires your going to wire up, and black and a red, takes like literally 2 minutes if that, to wire them up, not inclusing removing old headlight and bumper, that takes a little more.

yes.. the bulbs for the corners are the same
its actually two wires for each light, so 8 all together. not too hard. if i could do mine all over again i would just splice into the wiring without cutting off the USDM plugs just in case i need to put my USDM lights back on. but oh well
good luck with the install and dont forget to notch the bottom brackets to fit properly

i got all four male ends (two 9005's and two 9006's) from this website: http://www.suvlights.com/index.php?c...1f505522db5090 and got 4 h4/h1 style 3-pin connectors from autozone and spliced them directly to each other, making four mini adaptor harnesses. easily removable to put USDM headlights back in, or to move to another car.
