I have black housing cefiros (H4) and am installing this 6000k HID H-4 kit. Do I plug the white wire into the top notch or the right notch? Thanks guys!

if you are using a HID kit, then you dont even use the H4 harness that you got. THe HID kit has its own harness.

Top notch is lowbeam and right notch is for the highbeam.

lemme make a suggestion... when hooking up the hid kit... ground to a bolt or some other ground spot under the hood... if you ground through your headlight harness you are sure to burn the ground out...

Imports_only1 -- Thanks, that is what I was looking for (top notch is for low).

Also, the HID kit came with an upgraded wiring harness that runs both the ground and the positive for the kit straight to the battery =)

Also, imports_only1, how did you figure out top notch was lowbeam? I searched the net for a diagram for about an hour with no luck.

It's standard for H4/9004/9007 Hi/Low bulbs to be like that. Looking from the back of the plug where the wires insert into the socket, left notch is GROUND, right notch is HIGH, and top notch is LOW.
