Ok.. I have a big problem.. i have oem hids on my 2008 jetta, and I bought 10 000k hid, bulb only. I remove the cover, remove the oem ballast, put the new bulb, spent 1 hour trying to put the whole thing together... and finally succeed on the passenger side. Now for the driver side, it becomes tricky. On the oem ballast, when you turn it, a white clip inside the small connetor pops( the one that connects the ballast to the car) that make fall the wire and dissamble the ballast, the plastic ring and the bulb. The problem is we played a little bit on that connector to see how it was made and when we put back the wire, the plastic clip went very far in the ballast. We can actually see it with a flashlight. Now the original bulb and the oem ballast are totally stuck together.. We tried to pull the white clip out without success :(  So know I have to find a way to separate the oem bulb from the ballast..

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated!!
Thank you very much
