Angry Hid Wirering help, please

Bought Morimoto Hid kit from forum sale for my 06 Cobalt, kit came with no instructions so I did the Google search and found some info for Hyundai. Wired it up and everything works but low beams.
"Harness Input: Plugs into the output socket that used to go to the halogen bulb on the side closest to the batery". This is the extra connector that I don't know where to connect to. I did use the H7 diagram from 3bspecialities which shows the wire coming from the Ballast "to Headlight Socket" with two spade connectors, this i connected to the two spade receptables which were removed from the halogen bulb inside the light housing.
Lights are Gen 2 Eagle eyes with ccfl rings.
Bought the kit from 3bspecilaties.

Got any pics of how you have it wired up so far?

Edit: Here is a wright up I did for the 3rd gens. Concept should be the same for the 2nd gens though. https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/how-...s-leds-269891/

The extra connector is most likely the one for your solenoid in the projector.

Take a look at my "How To." It might answer some of your questions.

Links don't seem to be working so I cant post a url... If you want to find my thread, go to the "How to Guide" section and type "retro" in "Search this Forum"

You should see a thread by me.

Problem for me is the Plug on the Morimoto Harness labled "Harness Input (to factory Output)". I have the main plug from the light housing plugged into the factory output plug from the car wire harness. This Harness Input plug on the Morimoto harness seems like it might neet to plug into the car output plug but there is different quantity and color of wires.

You have the wrong harness. That is a H11 Relay Harness.



I believe i have a H7 Morimoto Harness if not I have a standard relay harness that will work.

What is the difference between the H11 Relay Harness and the H7 Relay Harness. I bought one of each and did not see any noticeable difference. The other one is in the car, so if I know the difference I can verify if it is H7 Relay Harness.
Thanks for your help with this.

Would either one of these plugged into the end in place of the H11 make it a H7 Relay Harness? If so where would the wire or plug connect?
