Question Questions regarding HID's in foglight projectors...

Ok I just bought an H11 HID conversion kit for my foglights, I've already put HID's in my 2nd gen projector headlights so I'm kinda familiar with the installation. I just have one noob question... where the heck do I put the two little silver connectors that are just randomly there on the wires?

It was easy to figure it out with my projector headlights because the connectors just plugged into them, but this, I have no idea what to do with.

Here's a couple of pictures of what I'm talking about. CAN ANYONE HELP ME OUT or tell me where/what I do with the silver connector plugs?

I'm going to cut that rubber cup off. But There is nothing missing from the kit. I have the same kit for my headlights and they didn't come with these "plastic holders" you're talking about. Now I'm just confused.....

This is what it looked like when i plugged them into my projector headlights, its not the same as the fog lights. Do you have a link or picture as to what you're talking about? That would help me out alot.

If the kit did not come with a relay harness. Those two metal pins go into your OEM plug. Match the black plug up with the ground wire and the red with the other wire. You just push the metal pins into the connector and wrap it up with electrical tape.

Nope, but so you know the bulb doesn't go in the way you think it would.
