The outer lights above are H4 or similar - ie, hi & lo beam, hence 3 wires (ho, lo & gnd)

The inner lights are ho only, hence only 2 wires (hi & gnd).

Ignore the labels - eg "Pass. Low" & "Drv. Low" unless someone can explain what that means.

I see it merely as a typical 4 lamp setup with outer hi/low beams.
And that Firebirds do not have the inner 2 hi beams.

If you are talking about having 4 hi/low beams, then ignore the inner hi beams and duplicate the outer hi/low. (That may no be legal for street use though...)

yeah that's what i mean and I suppose you or right I have 2 kits HID lights but they or for lows (3 wire hi/lo/and gnd) i'm trying to make it where the factory light switch works it correctly. the light housings i have or the none alunimum backing type these or them so all i have to do is duplicate the low light beams wiring
