Except I didn't buy an aftermarket plug and play kit, I'm using OEM ballasts from an Infiniti G35, so it's not so dummy proof. I know what cords plug into where, I'm just wondering about the wires coming from the stock 9006 plug for the bulb going to the ballast...getting power to the ballast is what I need.

What I did was cut the 9006 plug off to leave just the two wires going into it. Then I connected those wires to the power wires going into the ballast, but with no luck...it ended up popping the fuse. Tomorrow I'll try switching the positive and negative wires around. I switched them today, but the fuse might have been blown already from the first way I tried, so that didn't work either.
