hey gang
I recently purchased a fog lamp, which was equipped with a bulb from ebay, and a bumper bracket from rock auto, links below. the issue is my electrical connector is not matching up with the bulb socket. did I buy the wrong one or am I supposed to buy another connector?

Fog Lamp > H1 Bulb > H1 Bulb Holder > Wire Harness > Connector > Wire Harness
Do you have the wire harness in this pic that are connected to the bulbs? It's a male flat plug (blue) to a female round plug (black).

This is the round black plug connected.

looks like both harnesses is missing. I converted to hids two years back and looks like the oem harnesses are missing.

If you converted to HIDs for the fog lights isn't the wiring still there?

First time I touched my own car and I've noticed that the wires from the ballast are there but I can't seem to find the ones ctrlraven have up top.

What I don't understand is how you got the HIDs to work??
If you can't find the harnesses, you'll have to make them up.
Use Weatherpak connectors.
I have the connectors for the bulbs if needed.
