I just got the hids in the mail today and have a few questions about how they plug together. In the first picture the 2 round plugs in the buttom left coner are they used or not needed? In that same picture the plug next to the 2 rounds ones is it used or not? and the next picture is of the bulb they sent for my fogs. with all the same plugs. the last one is of the harness and I pretty sure that goes to the battery right? Or if anyone could point me to a thread that can help me would be great.

Ok....
The 2 round plugs are called AMP connectors. The plug into the ballast. The ballast plugs look just like those, so match them up.

The square one with the yellow silicone also plugs into the ballast. The other square black socket is where your factory harness will plug into, to give the HID a 12v power source.
