Default SiR headlights

I got a set of jdm headlights, The headlights in there are 9005/9006 (1997 honda accord ex) and the new headlights are h4/h1 i think?? All it came with is the corners, and the headlights, can someone tell me either how to install these correctly to get the bulbs to work, or do i need a harness or something.

I searched, and I saw information, but it still confuses me, some people are like you need a harness, some are like using the old harness and splicing wires... I just want to know which way is easier to do.

Thanks guys.

you can do either or get harnesses which people charge outrageous prices or make your own.. this way you can still retain the stock lights if you ever do sell the car. but if your like me and have a plug and play hid setup just order some h4 bulbs good luck

there is a like truck site (forgot what it was) that sells the converision pieces (suvlights i think) and you'll need:

2 male 9006
2 male 9005
2 female h4
2 female h1 (JDM style there's two, specify in the "comments")

It'll come with pins and everything you need. You can also go by AutoZone and pick up the ricer's h4 conversion harness they have there's a couple tutorials on how to do these

cd5 - h4 bulbs have 3 wires, it's a dual filament bulb
