    Trying to replace my Prius 2004 headlights and bought new headlights and housing due to old housing being to cloudy to see with. Bought on Partsgeek but I think I got halogen not HID replacements. They do not match my prius plug ins. But the housing fits and the new LED lights I bought fit into new lights.

    After some research is it possible to change the headlights from HID to halogen and put the new headlights on my Prius? I saw one video about sodering on new plug ins to fit the new headlights. Working with limited funds and skills ;)
