you will also need the oem harness from the ballasts to the bulbs and after market have ballasts and Igniters combined don't know if oem are separate or not

you may need this as well one each side ?

only ever fitter after market and that had one unit with  bulb connected and two wires from same unit that plugged into the halogen bulb connector

how about these bulbs ballasts and wiring harness Plus adaptors ?

could work out cheaper as you can sell bits you don't need

those are damaged you can buy repair kits for the brackets but is the lens is gone that's a problem
