Default Highlights which is high beam

I bought a used 2007 Honda Accord but the headlights seem to be wrong and wondering if the previous owner put low beam lights in high beam sockets or vice a versa. the car takes 4 bulbs and want to make sure the low beam bulbs go in the correct position and High beam bulbs go in the high beam sockets

Question: So does anyone know which sockets are which?

Do you have a picture? My 07 Accord isn't home right now so I can't go outside and look.....it should be home sometime today so I can go look at it later if someone else doesn't chime in before then

The bulbs should have 2 wires, where one wire is black on all of them.

The other wire color for each bulb is listed below.
Driver's high - wht/yel
Driver's low - red/yel
Passenger's high - wht/grn
Passenger's low - red/grn

Either the bulbs or the connectors are switched.

Here is a video on how to change the high bulb to show the location.
