09 GTS headlights replace with OEM RA /Evo 09 Projector HIDs

Hi there, been a long time lurker, and read many posts which have helped me maintain my 09 GTS Lancer
I am hoping someone can help direct me to an existing thread or share from their experience.
I have a pair of projector HID headlights pulled from a Ralliart. Tried replacing them as a simple plug an play and they do not want to play nice. Indicators work fine, but the actual headlights refuse to turn on.
Ive read conflicting things from they should work no problem to they wont work without a new harness, to DRL is an issue, but no real clear direction.
Are these even compatible with my whip? I cant imagine they wouldn't but i can and often am wrong

Putting this out there for anyone else who needs it in future.
quick check for compatability is take the harness connector off your current headlight set. From left to right with the securing clip at the top, are pins 1 -6, and on bottom pins 7 - 12. If you do not have pins 5, and 12 wired on your harness connector like my 09 GTS. HIDs are NOT plug and play.
