ok so i picked up some triple projectors WITH NO BULBS OR WIRING!!
& i bought everything i needed & all the bulbs (h1, h3 & h3c 2 of each) &
the oem harness to plug into the oem pop up headlight plug & i already
wired the low & fogs but not the highs!! i got suck on this because the
h3's have one little wire with a male connector at the end & the harness
comes with a red & black wire to the highs so i have a bulb with one cord
& harness with 2 wires?? do i ground the black one & just connect the
red to male end of the h3?? idk & i tried it & NOTHING!!???
& ALSO ONE OF MY LOWS NEED A H1 TO H4 ADAPTER/CONNECTOR WHERE CAN I GET ONE???

just convert your lights. the projectors suck on light output. and its actually unsafe to drive with

i have some of this stuff laying around. bulbs and maybe even partial harness.

Projectors suck at light output? I thought the output initially started with the bulb, not the projector....
the glass lens of the triple projectors are not of the best quality, but they will do just fine with a better bulb. IMO the only reason why these headlights are unsafe is because the cut-off is designed to move to the "left" (Japanese driving direction) as apposed to the "right" (US driving direction). This creates a seemingly brighter light redirected from your projector cut-off into oncoming traffic. not so good...
btw: a Japanese fsm HL wiring diagram would be a good search in here or fav search engine.

If you had the stock headlight harness it's plug and play with the body harness.
Since you don't, you'll need to make your own. All you need are male and female spade terminals, wires, heatshrink/tape, and a multimeter/FSM.
Go to your headlight harness and find the hi, lo, and ground wires. Connect the hi to the hi bulb, lo to low bulb, and ground wires to both bulbs.
Light bulbs are non-polar so it doesn't matter how you connect them. As long as the bulbs see power and ground it will work.
I'm not sure how you wired the lo or fog. Got pix?

this is seriously not that hard to do....seeing as you dont have the sub-harness for the lights...all you need is a test light and some time and you can build you own harness. plus this info have been covered several times.
