Default 94 Corvette mechanics

I am doing some work on my 94 corvette and need some help. My first question (since this is the first part I got in the mail) is what kind of converter should I use to go from the c4 heasdlight connector to a h4 or a 3 pin adapter?

H4 plugs into stock connector.

I figured my problem out right after I posted this. But thank you for the quick response. I have the hood and front bumper off. Just got the radiator housing off. Next step is to buy a new radiator and stick it in. Any suggestions on a good radiator?

I have seen some bad reviews about DeWitt . Like they are over priced and don't fit well at all.

Default Transmission radiator?

So... I don't mechanic. I'm flying by the seat of my pants trying to do all this work on my 94. I don't know anything really about cars. So what is this radiator looking thing in front of my coolant radiator?

That would make sense but someone else told me it was transmission cooler...

Can anyone tell me the trick of getting the gear in for the headlight motor on the passenger side? The driver came out and went back in easy but the passenger side is mirrored and the whole for the gear is opposite which makes the lip on the gear hit the spiral spinner. Can I take the spiral spinner out or will that make this project more difficult?
