Hi mate. Were they xenon or xenon look lights?
If you ask me, these look like they are rep xenons which would take the D2s and not H7 bulb.
The smaller plug connects to the igniter, that much I know. So the other looks like its for the ballast.
FYI h7 connection in xenon look headlamps:

D2S connections in xenon headlamps:

So I think you have the latter headlight type!
Hope this helps, Regards

Ahh I see I didn't know they were available so do you know what I need to make these work?
-
Xenon bulbs, ignitors, ballasts, loom etc
-
Expensive then? And I'm guessing those two wires one is for ballast and the other the igniter

So you looking at around £200 for 2 ballasts and £100 for 2 igniters and £40 for adapter if yours standard

anyone know if its possible to put a d2s hid kit in these lights? and will i still need the wiring loom adapters or are those not necessary if i was to run an aftermarket kit like this?

Looks like its possible to use this kit from what description says but i cant vouch for it as iv not tried it. Where possible its always safest to go OEM :happy2: Good luck!
-
Ok thanks alot for the info one final question do I need the looms to make these work or is that only if it was genuine bulbs ballast igniters etc....
-

-

Does anyone know if the projector lense in depo xenon look headlights is the same as oem xenon headlight projector lense or is it specific to a halogen bulb?
