EvolutionM - Mitsubishi Lancer and Lancer Evolution Community - Please Help! Removing the HID's from Evo X Headlights

I ordered a pair of spyder headlights ( Where you have to remove the stock HID's and transfer them to the new headlights) and when I got to the part of removing the HID Ballast/Wires from the old headlights to transfer to the new headlights, the wires would not come out, almost like they weren't supposed to. I got so frustrated I had to stop working on it.

I guess my question in general is has anyone removed the HID ballast and all the wires from the original headlights and is there any guides on doing it?

Thank you so much! I don't want to have to return these new headlights...
