Ok, thanks for the link but if possible I'd like to use what I have.  :)

on the ballast box, does it matter which pin is the positive because there doesn't seem be any particular way the plug, which I don't have, fits.

that said, would I be better off getting a kit as per above and would that new hid bulb fit in place of the existing one or try and get the headlight loom from a mini-facelift?

Sorry about all the questions but I'd rather it was done well first time.

What's different about your kit??? Are you sure it's a H1 fitting???

In theory the power feed from projector lights comes from;

Headlight ---> Into Ballast (on removable plug) --->From Ballast (on fixed plug) --->To bulb.

Hope this helps? It doesn't matter initially which way round the connector is, it just won't work BUT the omega should not require any wiring modifications.

It's been mentioned before but you want to get part of the headlight loom/plug from the '98 car to splice into your '95 loom/lights.

MarksDTM is the man for colours/wiring solutions!  :-X
