Trouble installing my HID - 3/24/2008 1:46:32 PM    Rogizzy123   Posts: 12 Joined: 11/20/2007 Status: offline Hey guys, sorry if i write alot but i just wana get this done right.  I have an 08 accord coupe and i ordered some HID's from ddmtuning for it. I got them about 4 days ago and decided to install them yesterday.  As my buddy and i were installing the HID's, i realized that they had sent me the wrong bulbs which i think should be an easy fix.  The main problem was that the ballast connection would not hook up to the stock connection.  Im sorry for my ignorance but i know very little about HID's.  I thought that the ballast input connection should have connected to the stock connection.  It wouldnt fit and i did not want to force it in.  Ima have to wait about 2 weeks to get the right bulbs back so i just wana know if ima need to buy a new connection that would fit the stock connection or is it the fact that my kit had the H1 bulbs therefore it came with the connections that cars with H1's have? by the way my car uses H11.....     I doubt thats the reason it didnt fit but im clueless and dont know what to do.  Do you guys think i should get my money back and order another kit or should I just get the right bulbs and hope the ballast hooks up?  My kit also came with a bunch of other wires, i think theyre relays.  Is there another way i could hook the ballast up to my stock connection?  If anyone could help me, I would REALLY REALLY appreciate it Post #: 1
