Correct. If you don't want to crimp your own wire to the connectors, just buy 61130005197 and don't buy 61131383776.

No, these will not fit on the OEM stock bootlid - unless you are able to modify it somehow. someone on e46fanatics did it, but it didn't sit flush (2-way tape was used)

I just want to say that I really like this mod. I finally got around to installing these last night. I find them to be much brighter than the led bulbs I had in the halogen housing. Plus, there are no bulb out warnings on the dash at all. Very worthwhile mod, thanks for the DIY
