If it costs too much new, you might consider getting a used piece from a junk yard.

its a small part its the 9006 bulb harness

u can get the harness from most auto parts store, and just splice the wires in... but if you're running bulbs w/ 80 or 100watts, expect to melt the harness again, unless u find some heavy duty ones.

thats what causes a harness to melt...inorder to solve it and run a higher voltage bulb buy a harness with thicker wires or different gauge size to accomodate those afterM bulbs...IMO those higher voltage bulbs will just cause you stress, invest into a HID kit

Good Luck

you can get the 9006 harness for around $10-$12 at any autoparts store, i used to blow the 9006 harness on my bimmer like 2-4 times until i went to regular bulbs...

i had my dad pick up a harness from the dealer they only sold in packs of four has no metal connector for the bulb so i ended up getting a used one from partsadventure.com cause there store is local picked it up for five bucks
