I had a HID system on my old car and was still able to keep the Philips LVQ 212 ballasts for D2R/D2S Xenon bulbs (D2 connector). I bought new bulbs for the ballasts and I thought that was all I needed. When I finally got the bulbs, I plugged them into the socket that was attached to the ballast and then the connector that the original 9006 bulb was attached to, I plugged that into the connector on the ballast. Now, when I turned on the headlights, at first it didn't light up, but I just had the connector that was attached to the ballast reversed. After that, when I turned on the headlights, it lit up really bright.
But, when I went to put the socket into the headlight housing, it didn't fit at all. In fact, it looks like I'm missing something or need some type of adatper to make it fit into the housing socket. I mean it's not like the I can't get the HID lights to work on my car, I just can't get the damn bulb to go into the headlight housing, because the adapter on the bulb is just circular. Please help me out, because I don't want to buy some kit, when I already have the ballasts and the bulbs. This kit did work on my Integra, which used the 9006 headlights, but it required a wiring harness to light it up. The only thing that came inside the kit, was the bulbs, ballasts, & the wiring harness.
Can I just order some type of adapter to make the bulb fit?
