I purchased these to replace my halogen sealed beams... As advertised they say just plug and play but when I received them there was NOWHERE on the back of these lights to plug in the original plugs that are currently plugged into my sealed beams. Does anyone know where I can actually purchase some HID, LED, or H4-H1's that actually have the 3 prongs out the back to plug in??? Thanks guys in advance
P.S. I read forum after forum and thread after thread last night for an hour and couldn't find any that helped with my question. And to add, I already have the conversion kit to prevent shortages for the use of high wattages.

Are there bulbs with the kit?

I ordered low beams and high beams, the highs came with bulbs already inserted but on the back is nowhere to plug anything. And the lows just have two wires out the back, red and black. I'll take a pic real quick and post

Lows. Nowhere to plug in as advertised

Are you sure those are the low beams? The low beams should have three wires.

If those are the low beams then they sent you the wrong units.

If those are the high beams, then just solder two ¼" spade terminals onto them and plug them in.

Those units are supposed to look like this:

I stand corrected, the pic above I posted is the H1 High Beam that replaces H5001 sealed beams.

Yeah I was wrong, they were High Beams that replace H5001 sealed beams. But a question Eric...All 4 of my headlights in the car now, are they all 4 H5001's or H5006's? Are should my car get 2 of each because now I'm a lil confused

Now I feel like a dummy, the H4s do have a 3 prong terminal. Just pull the cap off SMH lol

You should have two highbeam-only bulbs, in the inner positions, with two wires each, and two low/high bulbs, in the outer positions, with three wires each.

The bulbs have mounting bumps on the back that will only allow them to fit into the correct cups, and only in the correct upside-right position.

Gotcha, appreciate the help Eric. You always lend a hand when possible!

Please post some photos when you're done. I have a 69 also and would like to see how that came out.

IIRC the H4 high & low terminal positions are different from your old sealed beams. Positions as I remember them, may want to double check it.

You will likely need to do some clearancing behind the lenses for the rubber boots to allow proper seating & adjustability.

Relays & upgraded wiring recommended especially if using higher wattage bulbs. You can probably get a pre made conversion harness w/ relays. It is not a difficult project & there is no damage to original harness necessary.

I second what bccan posted. I converted the low beams on my Delta 88 and had to move the terminals around inside the plugs.
