Alright, I've finally gotten HID from Banzai Express in a group buy over at LegacyGT.com

And my problem is, that i could only get 1 headlight to work, because the harness Banzai Express gave me was missing 1 of these blue connecter.

So any of you guys who have HID, where did you get your harness to fit the stock harness?

Mine came with the connectors. You could either try a parts store like Pepboys or just cut the wire before the connector on the stock harness then spilce the 3 wires into the other 3 without using the connector.

Thats what i was thinking, but i dont know what the wire gauge are. and also running the risk of screwing up :roll: :oops:

and there's only 2 wires comming into that blue socket.

yea. That is because your car has high / low beam on a single bulb wheras the HID is just lowbeam. One of the wires isn't connected. Black is the ground (I wired this to the fender bolt right next to the bar that holds the hood up) and the white is power. My HID set didn't work grounded to the battery but yours might be different. I take it you have already figured this step out since you have one side working. All you have to do is look at the wiring setup on the working side and do the same thing without the connector on the other side.
