I'm just missing a few things.. i guess if this is correct i only need to wire the ignitor to the ballast.. but what kind of wires i have to use? also where should i connect the ground? nowhere

. the lamp connectors... which one has to be on the left and which on the right? it doesn't matter? i don't see any info on that to help me.. also the lamp.. what should be the correct position? it's all the same?

thank for the quick reply, the diagram is very clear but my kit includes the capacitor, in your diagram, I do not see where the capacitor is. Did I waste money for the capacitor ???

And another thing is the (+) and (-) of the lamp, I do not see anything on the lamp.

Still need more help.
