Default HID Help

need some help with my hid's. here some pics...

i cant get them to come on. there are a set of red/black wires right by the headlight bulb on each side that i havent done anything with. what do i hook them up to? im thinking maybe on the 2nd pic, the bigger black piece theres a green and blue wire, same as the 3rd pic. those were connected to the back of the headlight with the stock bulbs. do u think i need to splice and connect the blue/green to the red/black? if so, out of the blue/green is ground?

The red and black wires are the power wires for the HIDs. On the back of the old bulbs is a plastic connector that you need to pull off. The red and black wires goes into that connector and you just tape them into it. I guess you could splice the wires togather, but make sure to keep the connectors if you have to put the old bulbs back in. If i remember correctly the Blue is Hot and the Green is Ground. I posted a picture of how mine looks.
