For those that converted to H4 headlamps, did you install the rubber dust boots on the back?

And if so, did you remove the plastic plug on the wiring to fit the dust boot on or did you modify the rubber dust boot to accommodate the plug?

TIA

Am I misunderstanding something here? The rubber boot fits on over the three spade connectors coming off the bulb and then you put the connector on.....

Yup. Push the boot on the back after inserting the bulb and the three terminals will protrude through those holes. Plug in the headlight connector and done.

Absolutely. Push it on and then plug it in. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Ok. I'll take another look. Sounds like I am overcomplicating this.

Helps keep dirt and moisture out and the inside of the lens clear.
