Sell the kit cheap and buy the proper stuff for the car, why waste your time trying to make something work when their are kits available at good prices that work already...

keep the ballast and igniters and buy new bulbs.

From you OP, does that mean you have D2S bulbs currently?
Skunk2 is right, if it's just the bulbs that are wrong. Get a new pair and your good to go, provided that the connectors on the igniters are the universal ones.
PM me if you're interested.

If your car uses an H7 bulb, i have a set of 4300k H7 hid bulbs in the garage we can use on your car... then just sell the d2s bulbs and adapters..

6000k is the whitest .. 10000k is purple ... 8000k is blueish white ....
and as for your problem all you need are h7 bulbs ... they will plug into those ballast

from what I read above, I'm x2 in agreement to what everyone suggested, those connectors look exactly what I've installed. I have sp3GT's 6K kit, it's a very stark white, lights up everything. Love it :thumbsup
