Where did the plugs that connect to the headlight come from? I have the ones specified in the materials but that isn't enough to create the harness...

You make your own harness if you didn't get one. He has the diagram in post 3.

That should be the plug from post 45 I linked you to.

Isn't that what this is?


There are 2 plugs and one socket on each harness... the socket is on the materials list but what about the plugs?

--Wire Splicing--

If you do not have a plug-n-play harness/adapter, then you can splice/solder the wires from your existing OEM turn-signal harness to the two new harnesses that come with the projectors. Here's how to do it:
  1. You need to open the loom behind the stock turn signal socket to expose the 3 wires:
    (1x black=ground, 1x blue=turn signals and 1x red=parking lights)
  2. Use either splice connectors or simple soldering to connect the two red wires (parking light) from the new headlights to the black wire and red wire from the stock harness.
  3. Use either splice connectors or simple soldering to connect the two yellow wires (turn signal) from the new headlights to black wire and blue wire. If the yellow wires are too short, you will need to buy 20-gauge wires to extend them.

^^These connectors are the ones you purchase from a Honda dealership.
After soldering the wires to the connectors, the wires will then be connected to your harnesses that came with your projectors.



^^These connectors are part of the harnesses that come with your projectors when you purchased them.
If you didn't receive any harnesses with your projectors, then you'll never get them to work and you should return them.

Finding a layman's way of describing this all hasn't been easy. I'm certainly open to suggestions so don't hesitate to comment.
