'08 IS250 question about headlights
Hey CL, I'm brand new to the forum and owning an IS and I was hoping I could get some help with my '08 IS250. I recently tried to replace the headlights with 8000k HID's and followed many of the DIY forum posts, until I came to a small problem. The connection from my car to the headlamp looks completely different then many of the examples online and I was hoping someone at CL could help me figure out if I need a different type of HID, a completely new headlight system, or worse.
The first picture is what I found behind the dust cover and the second is what the connection to the headlamp and the main wire looks like.
Thank you for any help I can receive.

I bought an H11 kit from xenonsupply.com. Other DIY posts and videos I've seen have a connection to the headlight that is black and has the positive and negative wires split separately...
