I have a 2012 LaCrosse with HID headlight assemblies. I mistakenly purchased Halogen headlight assemblies. Is there a wiring adapter that will plug into the HID wiring terminal one the vehicle and also plug into the main terminal on the headlight assembly? Any ideas would be appreciated.

You cannt return them?
 
Why would you want to downgrade to an inferior lighting system? The immediate answer to your question is no, you can't plug the Halogen bulb into the HID wiring. You would have to hack the wiring before the ballast for it to work. I still would not do it though, you currently have a superior lighting system and unless you do little or no night driving you will not be pleased with the results.

Besides all of that, I don't think the BCM will be fond of the changes.

Hi Mel,
Yes, I can return them however I wanted to explore a way to use them if at all possible. I can retrofit a halogen headlight assembly with LED bulbs, but I can't use LED bulbs in the HID headlight assemmbly.
Thank You for your reply!

Hello Kevin,
Thanks for your response.
My ultimate goal is to retrofit my lighting system to LED bulbs which are superior to the Xenon. They are brighter, burn cooler and last longer and are far less expensive than Xenon. I can change the Halogen bulbs in a Halogen headlight assembly to LED, however I am unable to do the same with my current HID lighting system. I'm just looking for a way to enhance my headlighting system.
