Exclamation New connectors

Hi guys I recently posted a thread about melted connectors and this is a follow up help for it. I went to my dealership and bought my self what the dealer said would take of the problem. They gave me two red wires with a brown connector on one end and on the other wire a white connector. Now i know the brown connector is for the light bulb ( the yellow wire) but dont know what the white one is for. I would have gotten it done from the dealership but they wanted 187 big ones for suadering the wires :S that is wayyyy tooo much so now if you guys could help me out by looking at the pictures i took and given me your input.

PS: the connectors cost me $22.43

one wire goes on the bulb the other one is your ground......it goes to the lamp housing right above where the clips rest when closed....

Just like BicLighter says. There is a male spade that sticks out where the wire clips go that hold the bulb in place. Don't know why it is there in the first place but, that's exactly where to attach the ground (brown wire on my '02).
