Default Dear God, please help me find this part

The story:

I have a 2005 and it came equipped with HID headlights. I wanted to do the 2006 Bi-xenon headlight conversion. Found a pristine set on craigslist for like $200. Damn i thought i scored a deal but damn I'm dumb because as I was checking them out, i didnt pay attention to the fact that it was the housing only. No wire harness for these lights, just plastic. I'm pretty sure I need to wire harness assembly that comes clipped to the back of the lights because I tried to ghetto them in there anyways and the blinker bulb has a different way it sits in there and theres different wiring to control the brights function too. Also, I didnt notice a place to plug those 4 little LED running lights the new headlights have either, though I'd probably just splice that to the DRL that sits in the corner towards the bottom of the light. Anyways, I google and search to no avail. Anybody know where I can get just the wire harness that comes clipped to the back of the Bi-xenon headlights? My eternal love to whoever hooks me up with this damn answer. Thanks!

Yea, unfortunately, that's what I was thinking too. Maybe take some off a cheap ebay set that's intended for an 06 or something. Well, that's annoying but hopefully I find a donor set eventually. Thanks for the input guys.

Looking at the harness from the '03-'05, they look similar enough that you could probably just splice in the missing two wire leads and make it work.

No?

I made my own harness back in 06, pretty straight forward if you have some basic electrical know how.

but the plastic piece that holds the blinker bulb and screws into the housing thus holding it there... it doesnt fit. the hole for the blinker bulb holder is too big to screw into the housing. any ideas?

Silicone it or search headlight turn signal socket. You will have to do some research to figure out one that fits. Does not have to be off a z.

hmm, i think I'll consider the silicone option. I can always just pull it off and apply another bead when its time to change it.

sparco, how did you wire in the brights? I connected everything and got it all to work except that feature. There must be a wire or 2 i need to pull from the clip that plugs the low beam wires into the bulb. Thanks again for everyone's help on this!

nice looks like they for some reason are able to sell just the harness

weird their price for an entire complete headlight is cheaper than just the headlight housing price
