    You should have a pink block with it all mate that connects in to the plug on the inside of the headlight. The spades aren't fitted to it as the wires have to go through the plug that fits on the headlight. The plug is fitted on the picture above,...

    Didn't have any pink block with mine, just plugged the spades into the connector black into the negative and red into positive.

    They must have changed the kit then. This is the one I got from HID's Direct at the end of 2008:
