Question question for wireing wisemen

Quick question for you who have or have done wireing to the blacked housed headlights.
now i am pretty good at figureing things out and makeing them work.
the parking lights as well as the blinkers are pretty simple...simply cut and splice to the factory wires but it is the main lights wich i have a question about.
now the stock 9007 is both the high and low beam.
but with the blacked out it has seperate bulbs for this...the 9005 and H1
finally my question...
how do i work the wireing to make them work correctly?
the 9007 wireing has 3 wires so what do i cut and splice to to make these 3 wires usefull for the 2 new 9005 high beam and the H1 low beam?

Kareem , pearlwhiteoz , anyone else who's dont this

Joe i know your all HID now so it may be useless to ask you a wireing question regaurding "old fasion"lights but if you have a answer...let me know

Aight, the black wire from the 9007 harness is the ground... PERIOD, for both the high and low. What you do is run the ground from both bulbs to the black one. Get a voltmeter and turn ur headlights on, the "hot" wire is ur headlight, connect that to your h1 bulb and the wire left from process of elimination is ur high beam, run that to ur 9005 harness wire. And then have a beer as u sit back and enjoy ur new black housings...
