You can get the harness from the dealer, they might refer to it as the repair kit for the 2k2-2k3 headlights. It will include all the wiring you will need to install. Here is a link to the wiring kit on courtesyparts.com As far as how to wire them up, I cannot help you there.

Yup, get the kit. Then get the 02/03 lower headlight clips from the dealer for $2 each. Then, either have a trusted mechanic install them, or do it yourself.
I can give you some details from watching my mechanic install them, if you'd like.

who in their right mind would sell the HIDS off of their car? Org member or not chances are they are stolen. Probably didn't have the harness because they guy ripped them out of a damn car.

If they aren't stolen that org member needs to have his head checked.

not this again...what if the person he bought it from downgraded because he is tired of getting his stolen?? there are a few threads out there that want to switch from 02 hids or regular halogen because of that fact. we dont need to instigate this guy, long time member, let him get the help he needs without all the drama. i say if someone offers to help...Ammi...then you should do that. but you will need the whole kit of wires and the two clips. maybe you could just sell the rest on the ORG. cause i think it will take far too long for you to find that in a junkyard.

A definate possibility. I just cannot imagine how anybody could live in such a world of fear that they would pawn things of value in fear of getting them stolen.

I sold them to him and i bought them off a guy who had them on a 2000 but traded it in, he hardwired them into existing harness. I had to sell, i didnt want to, needed to pay off some wheels i put a downpayment on.

He is missing one plug which the previous owner lost, which i can see how. You should post a picture of the plug its a standard one, im sure you can find it somewhere as opposed to buying a whole new harness.

The harness kit is only ~$34 at Courtesy Nissan, so it won't break the bank to buy the whole thing.

lol don't worry. Usually the people we have to worry about post something like this:

"Uhm, how do you remove HID headlights without cracking the black thingy and how do you do it quickly cause I am short on time?"
