Default i need help with hid.

hi,
I need help with my situation.
I have just bought a hella hid kit with osram bulb.
It was from a guy in oregon from ebay. His name is taewon ahn.
anyways, he told me that his bulb will fit my car and when I tried to install it, I had no luck. for some reason it looks like a wront size or something. I was sent and hella ballast and osram bulb.
it didn't have any wiring which i don't know if I need one or not.
the ballast had port where it seems to me that I would attach where the bulb usally would go. so I did and attached the hid bulbs to ballast and when I tried to turn the light on, it would light but I just can seems to put in place in the housing. The hid bulb didn't have those 3 "wings" which are on 9006 bulbs that would go into opening and I would twist to lock in place. So I don't know if I had bought the wrong kit or not. I don't have any experience in installing hid so I dont know what is up. I have contacted the seller but I just wanted to see if anyone had idea for me. any help would be appreciated. I will try to attach a picture. thanks

ok if there are no 3 *****, that's not 9006. my best bet is that's actually a d2s or d2r, if so you should see one very tiny **** on the bulb..... the diameter of the bulb will fit, but it will not hold. if you want you can use silicon to hold them in, though it's not a perfect solution imho
