I assume you bought the ballast connectors with a short piece of loom with the Hid`s :question. If yes, swap your level motors onto the hid`s (plug & play), two wires from ballast connectors (should be brown & yellow), splice them into your existing loom that carries the dip beam connector.

Nope. You need the connector & piece of loom that plugs into the ballast...........the bulb is fed from the ballast
