I have a question for those of you who have installed HID fog lights on your second gen. I've searched the topic, read that the 9006 bulbs are supposed to be a direct fit, but I am having a problem connecting the HID bulbs to the stock foglight connector, pictured below.
The part of the new HID bulb that is supposed to hook up to that connector is much wider, and the pins do not line up. Pictured below,
Could someone, anyone, please tell me how you were able to pull this off? I've had this kit for over a year now, purchased a number of different bulbs to try and make it work, and have had no luck whatsoever. I have a 5000km road trip beginning next week, and the enhanced visibility would be a welcome modification so that I'm able to drive longer hours at night without straining my eyes.
Thanks in advance to whoever can help me shine some light on this situation!
