I do not believe there is an adapter, it would probably violate the electric code. The fourth wire is a separate ground wire. The best fix would be to have a four-hole receptacle installed by an electrician.

How many types of gender?

Two, male and female. Connectors with prongs are called male gender and those with holes female gender plugs.

How do you remove a headlight assembly from a Pontiac Montana?

Open the hood and look at the top of the headlight assembly. There should be two catch heads that screw down onto flat prongs attached to the headlight assembly. once you unscrew them, the whole assembly should slide out of the housing. When you put it back, look at the outside edge of the assembly, there are two prongs that slide into holes in the framework of the body. Be sure to insert them into the holes, as they help hold the assembly in place.
