Default Oem headlights...did I get ripped off?

Hey guys, I bought some OEM headlights for my b5 on audiforums in august. I took my car off the road so never even attempted an install...I was going to sell the lights, had someone interested, but am now noticing they came without the connector attached!

Is purchasing 2 new connectors (they are connected to the headlights) and rewiring a possibility ? (think plug and play) Or did I get ripped?

Will paypal be able to refund my money if I file a complaint?

Appreciate the help, I've also attached a pic. Unreal how this slipped by me.

They can be added no problem. Or you can removethem from your existing lights and put them into these to install them. No worries.

Why would you buy new ones? just take them from your old headlights and use them

Hey guys, I don't have my old headlights...I'm selling these lights and have a buyer. Does anyone know where to buy the connectors and how to install them? I wanted to help my buyer out because he doesn't know how.

Your cheapest options are going to be:
1. Junk Yard
2. Classifieds where somebody is parting out a wrecked car
3. Maybe EBAY but a long shot

Shove the wires in the hole and snap the connector in. Not even GM could make it hard.
