Quad Style Headlights

Im working on some wiring for my headlights and was wondering what type of plugs these are. Does anyone know? They are the retroshop "resistor/halo" adapter plugs that retroshop sells.

This plug goes to the back of the headlight where the turn signal bulb is.

This plug plugs into the trucks wiring harness for the turn signal.

Here is the entire plug.

If anyone can help id really appreciate it. Thanks.

I know the turn signal bulb is a 3157 but is the plug for the bulb an h13 style plug?

The plug coming from the factory wiring harness is a h13. The socket that goes to the light switches it from a h13 to the 3157. So it looks like all that harness does is give you wires to power the halos without having to splice into the factory wires

Yea i know what it does. I was wondering what the plugs were. Im trying to make my own "halo adapter" like the retroshop one but instead of 1 wire coming off i need 3. So in order to build my own i need to know which plugs are on the ends of that "adapter harness".

So the one end is an h13 male and the other end is a h13 female? Is this correct?

Those arnt correct. I built the 200 something Halo adapters that JJ has for sale. Theyre delphi connectors. They have 3 wires coming off them so not sure why you said they had 1...

What are you trying to do? that seems a little excessive... I doubt you would be able to crimp 4 sets of wires in the terminals... hell, i had trouble doing the 2 wires on those when I built them last year.

I have some spare parts I may be able to send ya. When I got the Spyder projectors recently, the box included some adapters that I'm assuming we're to be used if I had duals instead of quads. I could be wrong though. Either way they were not needed so I've at least got some headlight adapter plugs you may be able to use for your project. I'll take pics later and message you if you want them....free of course.

Yea that would be cool. Please send me the pics. Something in there could be useful for my retrofit project. Thanks.
