Hello,  
I just replaced old headlights on a 2007 honda fit with LED bulbs and was wondering if there is a different version of the rubber bulb cover for led lights? I can’t fit the rubber cover back on due to the plug and cord. What are my options?

Thank you

Option 1: make a hole in the old rubber cover and pass wires through it

Option 2: use old rubber cover, unmodified, remove LEDs and relieve the oncoming drivers from the excessive glare it will make in the headlights not intended to install LEDs

personally, I strongly advise toward #2

There will not be a different cover because your vehicle was never meant to have LED lights in the first place.
