Hello,

Today I found these headlights for a pretty cheap price and I'm thinking of buying them before they get sold, but I have a question regarding the connector.
These are the headlights from the front. And these are the headlights from the back. I've circled the yellow cable because I don't know what it is.
Also I've pointed to the 2 things that look like the connectors.

I have these headlights on my car now and they only have one oval-shaped connector. I assume they are not compatible with my car, but is there anyway I can get them working? I don't need the dimming features or anything fancy. Just the DRLs and headlights working.

Thank you for your time.

Basically you have two types of connectors for the OEM headlights, 10 or 14 pin. You have halogen headlights so you'll have the 10 pin connector. What the aftermarket headlights have, is a guess but mostly they have a 10 pin as well.

So you say these are not OEM? It's not really a problem for me. I'm just wondering what that yellow connector is. Is that the 10pin? It just looks small.

I happen to go into town tomorrow and might take a detour to this guy's house to check them out. It would be nice to know beforehand if they are compatible.

Looks like an aftermarket connector.
Perhaps the seller has modified the lights to fit an aftermarket HID kit or something like that?

Oh yes. I googled some aftermarket hid conversion kits and found that exact connector. Thanks.

These are not OEM and it is probably a HID connector, yes. I couldn't exactly see it on my phone.
