Why does my headlight look completely different from every tutorial for my car?

I have a hyundai accent 2005. I have never changed this car's headlights before but I did change others and it's usually easy.

So I looked up the bulb 2003. Took the headlight out. Inside it's completely different.

Every tutorial shows this way:

I am trying to upload a photo of what I've got but basically there were 3 clips attached to a wire. I don't even know what to look for to find a pic online I'll just keep trying.

Update:

I'm with it until you're supposed to pop out the clips; my clips were different so I popped them out and I ended up with this when I pulled out the black piece.

    That's the Headlight Wiring Pigtail and Bulb. You should have a 9003 bulb, but you don't. It is either an LED or HID aftermarket replacement. If it's an HID there will be a box (transformer) that the connectors plug into. Pull the bulb and bring it to a parts store to see if they have a replacement.
