Question Blobeye EU headlights to JDM with OEM HID/Xenon

Hello!
I own european blobeye WRX STI.

I got a great deal to get JDM headlights with OEM HID (xenon). But jdm ones has 2 different wiring harnesses.
1.picture = Europe
2.picture = JDM

I wanted to know, what are possible options for this case, how to connect current EU wires to JDM ones. Some conversion kit needed or maybe whole wiring must be replaced? What and where should I look for?

Thanks! Sorry for bad english.

Won't the first problem be that they will dip to the wrong side?

No. I know how to rebuild them for EU. Problem is with wires as described above. No clue where and what to look for.

Those plugs/connectors are not part of the HID system, jus main beam, side lights etc. JDM are the same as UK, so you just need the UK plugs. No idea why EU are different. I will have a look at my UK headlights later to confirm. I have fitted JDM HIDs and I don't remember having to change any plugs other than for the HID.

My mistake. Looking again, those plugs are for the headlight adjust motor (the black box the leads are connected to). This uses different wiring to the Uk/EU motor/loom. I just swapped my motors from my UK lights to the JDM lights. However, it appears that you don't have any motors on your EU lights? So you can either ignore those plugs completely or try to source UK/EU motors, providing you have the plug from your loom to connect them.

There is a manual adjuster **** at the bottom of your photo (top one) and 3 holes around it in a triangle. That's where the adjuster motor screws on.
