Thanks for the reply , the thing is that the headlights didnt have the wiring harness , it brought the ballasts and all the bulbs but no wires , thats why i want to know if i can use my current 03-05 wiring on the new headlights

Computer power harness.
This should be correct as I drew this on my knee back in 2006.
Figure out car side harness first, then trace each wire on the 06+ headlight. See which matches up, connect low beam car side to low HL, parking lights car side to HL etc. You can also make your own harness, just need a simple power harness off a computer. One of the plugs on the 06 will not be used, everything will work perfectly without it, even high beams.

The harness might need to be adjusted or changed, I don't recall. If it fits then you are good to go. The high beam shields will retract once wired into the 03 harness. Just make sure everything is the correct corresponding function that matches the harness on the car side.

Yes exactly. FINALLY someone that understands what I'm trying to do. My only remaining question is if the plastic base plates on the turn signals and DRLs from an 03 will screw into an 06. If the bulbs will physically go into the new housing. The wiring really won't be a problem for me. It'll literally be tapping 2 wires for the high beam shutter, and 2 wires for the upper corner LEDs from the lower corner DRL that I don't intend to use.
