    It seems the new lamp harnesses have no way to connect to the car's connectors. these are from Autokrafters.

    The first 2 pictures show the lamp harness comes with some adapter. I figured I didn't need that because obviously I need a connector with 3 pins. why it's there to begin with I have no idea. Problem is the new connector will not fit into the car's.
    Pic 3 shows that the adapter wire will, but that cannot be right and no surprise the light does not light up.
    I do not have old connectors because everything was wired straight with electrical tape. It was bad.

    I might be wrong but I think one is for sport lamps (hot and ground) and the other is for turn signals (2 hots and one ground).

    I'm confused. Anyone have a picture for reference?
