Plugs are the same, just a different size. Match them up just like you would your old lights.
Or you could search, since this is brought up at least once a week by some other idiot who can't use his brain.

The plugs are different.
You just match color to color.
Take USDM harness side, solder to JDM bulb side.
Green to green.
Green white stripe to green white stripe.
Black to black.
And so forth.

Eww, butt plugs and what not suck.
Buy a soldering iron, heat shrink and solder. Learn how to properly tin the wire and solder that.
It isn't hard and it a valuable skill that is in no way considered hard.
Do it right or don't do it at all.
I knew this one kid who redid his wireing harness with butt plugs...

^^seconded. There is no substitute for a good soldering job. When I was in HS I had so many problems with my cars because I was too lazy to solder. Now I wouldn't do it any other way. It's not hard to do.
Actually here's (http://www.mediacollege.com/misc/solder/) a tutorial.
