​I hate to even ask because I feel the answer is right in front of me, but as I search I don't see much info, photobucket pictures are gone.

Here goes:

So I bought some headlights from the forum,
Unable to hook it up.

I'm having trouble connecting the low beam plug. (The Brown one) (this is the low beam plug right?).[EDIT: THE BROWN PLUG IS NOT THE LOW BEAM. THE BROWN PLUG IS THE TURN SIGNAL LAMP]


Here is what the bulb plug looks like, it looks like a 9006 or something else,

I found this online but it is for the whole head light:



Which plug/bulb am I missing,? What's going on here?,

Bulb plug?

IDK

Is there an off the shelf solution?

Part Number? wiring specialties?

I'm tired of wiring, and would rather have a disconnect-able harness plug.

What do?

Been awhile since Ive messed with the headlight wiring on my kouki but Im positive that brown plug in the first pic is not the low beam plug. The low beam plug should be grey iirc and it should slide over the plug you have shown in the second pic.

So what is the brown plug for? I'm kinda thinking it is the low beam still...

I think I need this plug (below) but where/how?

What key words should I be searching?


found this but it is discontinued [edit: actually I found them but they're $45 each (they might still refund me and then say they are discontinued,(happened before)]

Hey man I missed informed you about the plugs so I apologize for that. Like I said its been awhile since I last messed with the headlight stuff on my kouki. I actually did an HID retrofit on mine so my plugs aren't the same anymore.

Anyways, I looked in my FSM and the plugs you should be looking for should have Red/Blue and Black wires on the Pass. Side and Red/Yellow and Black wires on the Driver Side. I still believe the brown plug you have shown is not the correct plug as it does not have the little flats on either side of the plug that go into the low beam plug on the lights.

Upon looking closer at your first picture, it looks like there is a ballast on the bottom of the headlight housing, like someone installed an aftermarket HID bulb in the original housing. Is that correct? If that is the case then the plugs might not match like they are supposed to.
Hope this helps and once again sorry for the misinformation I previously mentioned.

I guess the reason I was even posing the question was because I didn't want to have to mickey mouse this, or spend more money on parts I should've had by default.

kinda bummed the guy sold it to me this way,

He definitely put some aftermarket miss match bulb, but didn't provide an adapter plug to the OEM harness, leaving me to pick up the pieces/ bill.

I was hoping someone would have had a plug and play solution for this, but I think I'm gonna have to do it the hard way ($$$)

I'm gonna keep looking for an off the shelf solution for this,

I'll try to get more pics of the bulb when I get home.

In the mean time, can anyone tell me what kind of bulb plug that looks like to you? (In the second picture)

I think I'm just going to buy a new pair of Headlight assemblies and swap em out then return them none the wiser. lol

UPDATE: I'm an idiot, the brown plug is for turn signals. lol.

As for the head light plugs, I just cut and spliced them together.
