Do you have regular 9006 bulbs in there or HID d2r? 9006 should twist out counter clockwise and d2r well let me know if you have d2r

i have the h7, just regular halogen lights, but when I took the power cord off, there's just two little prongs that look like a plug to me...thing is, i don't see any cap or anything that holds it in place like my old nissan maxima....i tried twisting it a little bit, but wouldn't move...wasn't sure if I was suppose to...

On the H7 model I believe you have to remove the black rubber gormet and then the h7 bulb is helt in place in 2 different pins.

the black cover would not come off if I twisted it counter-clockwise. How do I take it off?
