Default How do I install high beams on my 5th gen prelude

here are pictures of my right head lamp.





I bought this car with an hid retro non high beam.

I’m guessing that I’m missing the high beam connector.

Q: How do I keep the high beam light bulb secure?

Sorry for the dumb Q but thanks in advance. Pictures of your light assemblies would be greatly appreciated.

you need to put a light bulb there first and then that metal clip that's there secures the bulb in place

it seems that u are missing the plastic part that converts the 1 prong from the h1 bulb to the 2 prong for that conection. The metal clip goes around this plactic clipping it and keeping tight inside the lamp.....thats what i think

But no,you must just put a bulb!
To remove the metal clip,you just need to press on the little thing on the top,you put the bulb and you reput th metal clip pressing it!
