Getting more confused as this goes on!

Are these the connections? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2808552182...84.m1497.l2649

And if this is the ballast: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/01-06-AUDI...item3f258d7a27

What's the plastic box here? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-A8-D2...item2c6af945fd

And do I need to replace all 3 components?
