you dont have wire cutters? go to home depot there is a all in 1 kit for 10 bux comes with connectors e- tape cutters zip ties.

go to walmart and buy 4 3 pin universal headlight connectors. it will work on both the h1 and the h4's then just cut and splice.

cut the old 9004 headlight plugs off leaving about 2-3 inches of wire then just get some butt conectors. connect the new h1/h4 connectors you bought at walmart e-tape over the connections(butt connectors) and your done

wow dude, this is basic electrical stuff. i would say go to passwordjdm

they have adapters for like 20 bux each. if you can't grasp the simple concept of installing jdm headlights and making new connectors.......

just cough up the cash and buy those
