The owner's manual does not show the swapping of the black adapter from the stock low beam bulb to the new (in this case Sylvania Silverstar[tm] bulb. It was Very Fustrating trying to get the connector back on until that 'ah ha moment' to look at the old bulb...

Once swapped - everything went well.
