Ya, Im going to take out everything from the current harness, and switch it to the new one. Anyone have any wiring diagrams or DIY's to make this easier?

Just did this, it wasn't bad. What model is your car? And do you have the regular halogen headlights or the ones with bi-xenons? Cause the wiring diagrams are different between them.

Got everything working, but it's throwing an error code for the parking lamp cause I had to wire both parking lamps signal together to make the "C" LED brighter.
Here's the results, they look awesome all lit up.

Can you take a picture of the wiring harness from several angles and post the diagrams you used to do it? (Currently don't have headlights until I do this)

So, the diagram that one dude posted gave you everything you need to know about the pinouts on the headlight, all you need to know is the matching wires to splice to on the car. The attached pdf is the wiring diagram you need. Just use the legend to figure out which wire does what and you're golden. You will see that there are two parking light wires, I ended up splicing them together to make the "C" LED brighter because the voltage from one wasn't enough to make it match the DRLs.

Also, from the 10 pinout plug on our car, you can see the following:
2009 Plug
1 - (brown wire) - Right wheelhouse ground point
2 - (yellow wire) - Right Low Beam
3 - (white wire) - Right High Beam
4 - (gray/white wire) - Right front standing and parking lamp
5 - (gray/red wire) - Right front standing light 2
6 - (black/green wire) - Right front turn signal lamp
7 - (black/blue wire) - *not sure*
8 - (green/blue wire) - *not sure*
9 - (brown wire) - Right wheelhouse ground point
Any of the brown wires can splice with the negative ground points you need. Then match up the Low beam wire from the headlight to the #2 (yellow wire) on the car. Match high beam wire from headlight to the #3 (white wire) on the car. Match the #6 (black/green wire) to the turn signals. Match the #4 and #5 wires to the "C" LED or parking lamp. That's it, easy as pie.

The green/blue wire, you connect that with the "c" wire it stay on like drl even when the light is on
As for the black/blue you can tap that to the drl fog to the green wire not "brown" and you'll get full brightness even during night time when headlights turn on
