your gonna have to either buy a wiring harness or make your own. www.hidplanet.com is a good place to start.

damn, so i guess all of you just was born with wiring techniques, cant help a guy out. A Guy gave me one projector already, all he said is i need to connect them. Thats why im asking for wiring help, diagram or something to make this shyt easy.
You can buy the all of the necessary parts at your local harward store/Radio Shack and assemble it yourself or you can buy the ebay NTBK harness and modify it for your application. In either case, the instructions on how to make your own bi-xenon harness for this type of projector is on Hidplanet. Good luck to you.
I have single xenon e46 with h3 fog. I got the NTBK wiring harness. I will try to explain this as best I can.
My ballast is a hella gen 3 with these type of plugs: Notice how it connects one way.
The polarity on the left of the clip is negative, and on the right is positive:
Therefore I grounded the blue wire, and had the yellow wire to the low beam of my harness which happens to be yellow also. This was also posted on hidplanet.com for the Gen3 hella ballast. Some people may receive different color scheme, but the left of the top gray clip is negative.
There is a diode connected to the red and whire of the relays here(This allows my high beam to be on with the low beam) This way you don't keep shutting the hid on/off when flicking highbeam, it may also turn on both the hid too when lights are not on, so no more flashing for people unless your headlight is on already:
Here is a 30amp fuse with holder that is connected to the harness before it plugs in to the other end. The harness had two red wires running to the end connectors. The connection was cut and soldered both ends to single to connect to the fuse:
Depending on how you connect your wires the blue and yellow from the harness will either be high/low and vice versa. Good idea to use a multimeter here. My connection had the white wires from the male/female plug that connects to the stock connector soldered to the low beam, and red wires to the high beam, whereas some may have it white to high beam, and red to low beam (So use that multimeter) and solder all connections.
I hope this helps a little. If you need, find somebody electrically inclined, and make sure they solder all connections. Everything in those pics are all soldered together, including the diode.
