DDM HID ballast & OEM connector issue
Has anybody ran into issues connecting the DDM slim ballast kit to the OE wiring harness? The female receptacle on the ballast will not accept the OE connector. Do I have to wire this myself or is there some adapter that exists to connect it? Thanks for the help. By the way DDM never mentioned needing any adapter.

It is all plug and play! Are you sure you got the right kit?

The way I read this, he has HID and is trying to replace a bad ballast.

DDM is a company who makes aftermarket HID kits. They are all plug and play though. Even if he is trying to just replace the ballest he should just be able to unplug the old one and plug the new one in as long has he has the right kit.
