I'm going to be purchasing a HID kit for the foglights that I have (they take H3 lamps) and I want to be able to use the stock connector. All I really need is the 880 stock lamp plug to be able to plug it in but I do not know where to find just that plug. Anyone know where to find them? The kit I want to buy has the H3 style which would work fine but the way I have the lights rigged now...I'm not the most confident in risking electrical issues with a $300 kit.

How are you going to fit an H3 in place of the stock 880?

If you send me the connectors I can get the kit and have the connectors soldered in place so you can just plug them in. I can get the kit to you for $230 shipped, Ill do the soldering and what not free.

I used the bases of my broken fog light bulbs to make my aftermarket fog light kit "plug-and-play".

I dont know if the stock fog light wiring can handle the power requirements of HIDs though. Its not just the steady-state power consumption to worry about, but also the start-up power spike. You might have to rig it up via a relay.

blackbirdws6,
If you haven't bought the kit yet, maybe you can send the old fog light bulbs to LS1_SS and take him up on his offer.

VIP1 - I already switched to the LED ring foglights that use an H3 lamp. I just stubborn and don't like to chop and cut wires when I may not have to. Probably why I have these issues lol.

The offer is very enticing LS1_SS but my only problem is that you do not offer the color temp to match my current headlight kit. I am running a Kaixen 6500k kit which is slightly purple/white in color. It would actually be cheaper if I could use one of your kits because the one I am probably going to have to buy will be $300 to get it to match..and I will still have to rig it. If all it takes is some soldering skill to simply use the 880 base then I don't see the problem in doing this to the kit I will eventually get. So I guess they do not sell just the female(?) end that is attached to the plug? Thanks for the help guys.

I used the old fog light bulb connecters too, but i didn't have to splice into anything. I just got home from work and i'm tired as hell, like i said I'll snap yousome pics tommorow.

The bulb side is male.
The harness side is female.

I didn't want to cut up my stock wiring either.
Check out the fog light page on my site.

VIP1- Thanks for the clarification on the male/female deal. I have checked your site before and found it very informative. I will most likely snap off the old bulb and solder the connectors so I can use the factory harness. Now all I gots to do is get the HID kit.

Dirtybird - It's not a rush thing I'm doing so take your time. Let me know when you have some pics.

Brian,
You know I've got this all figured out with the factory harness and correct plugs. Holla at me if you still need some help.....
