? thread started as "ordered the oem hid's", yet you didn't?
sure i would not want to spend 2 grand on that gizmo, so the question is which/where did you order the hid's? price? instructions? apparently no harness!? how are they meant to be installed/connected?

He was questioning that you ordered a set of hids.
But you only ordered the headlamp and none of the lights/wiring/etc

If all you ordered was the housings, then you are going to have to either get the stock wiring harness/ballasts or some aftermarket wiring/bulbs/ballasts and so with what you have, you won't be able to install even after you get the right side housing. might should have gotten the whole kit like what Steeda sells.

I just got the right one today. The bulbs and ballasts are already in the housing, I just need the harness.

Make sure you don't need to modify the harness before you put it in. You do for the '05 - '09 conversion.

Is it true you can just use aftermarket bulbs and ballasts? Which bulb size would fit in the housing?
