I recently ordered an HID Kit off of DDMTuning. I ordered an H13 bulb size. It came in the mail and I was trying to install it today, but noticed that the two terminals that should be plugged into the stock headlight plug are a bit too big. Did I order the wrong part or something? I noticed on another forum that some people mentioned they bought the 9007 size... so was I wrong in ordering H13? Pictures below.

Did those spades fit into the headlight connector? When I tried to fit those in, they were too big for the slots. Also, I would, but I can't edit my post.. sorry about that.

I've ran into this installing 3 different HID kits (2 Mustangs, 1 F150). Don't know how comfortable you are with cutting/splicing the head light pig tail. But with ones too long/too big I cut the spades off and cut the head light pig tail off once I know which wire goes where I just splice them together.

Ah okay, so it involves splicing. I'll go ahead and get help from a friend then who's better with that stuff than I am. I was just expecting plug and play when I bought this kit.

Installed 'em! We snipped off the stock connector, crimped the spades onto the wires, then soldered them and covered them with a heat shrinking tube (because we didn't have electrical tape). Used zip ties to mount the ballasts and wires.

Looks great! I ordered 6000K so it's really nice and white, with a tiny hint of blue. The only thing I noticed is that when I flicked on the lights one time, only one side turned on, but then when I turned them off and then on again, they both turned on. Not sure if it's a connection issue or if it needs to warm up or something.

I'll take pictures later tonight.

I love 'em! Super bright.

Man, I'm sorry about the above post. The image host rotated it for some reason. I also apologize for the triple post, but I can't edit my posts...
