New Projector Headlights

ARdoller · Jan 11, 2009

anyone know if you can use a dual beam 9006 HID bulb in these?

OnyxCobra · Jan 11, 2009

I don't even know if they make a dual beam 9006. That's the point, they use a different bulb for highs and lows...

sorry, i mean 9007. i have a dual beam kit in my halogen housings, and im lookin for a set of projectors that they'll fit in. if i was to get those (if they fit), id use the dual beam in the projector, and just leave the halogen bulb in and not use it.

The only projectors I've seen have a separate bulb for the high beams, I think that's how pretty much every car is.

Everyone that was where? Sorry, I don't know what you're talking about... I'm in San Jose, CA if that helps clear something up.

Sorry I can't help you guys about the lights. All I know is that I plug them in and they work. :dontknow:

Whats up with your antenna?

dutch · Jan 14, 2009

same ones came on my stang, can't say I like them very much.. But I don't like any projector style on these cars. I'll be ordering some regular smokes ones from blue oval.. Main reason is because I think they have a VERY poor light..

if the ones you have now are in good condition, ill pay to have them shipped to me. id like to see if 9007 bulbs fit in them, and how the light output is.

dutch · Jan 14, 2009

yeah there in good condition, but I need to order me some smoked ones first.. might be a while before they arrive here, and I get it all swapped.. Hope you're not in a hurry.

ARdoller · Jan 14, 2009

not really. as long as the shipping isnt outrageous on them, i dont mind. just shoot me some pictures of em, and ill let you know what i think.

dutch · Jan 14, 2009

I'll get in touch when it's that time.

cntchds · Jan 14, 2009

As for my antennae, it was like that when I bought the car.

thats what i got. i have a dual beam kit with 9007 bulbs. all the projector kits i see, come with 9006 bulbs... the only difference i THINK are that the 9006 bulbs are 90* angled, i dont think anything else is different.

does anyone know if theres enough room for a 9007 bulb to fit behind a projector? or better yet, does anyone know if 9006 bulbs are interchangeable into a kit that is sold with 9007 bulbs?

cntchds · Jan 18, 2009

Yes, they have glass casings, which is very cool for the oxidation factor.

I don't know how to switch out the bulbs, and I would like to since I just bought the Sylvania Silver Stars. Is there a way to switch them out, or do I have to live with these... Not really a tall order since they are still way brighter than my old stock housings.

I've had both styles, the projector type and blue ovals smoked lens. I perfer the blue oval smoked for light and looks..but mainly light. When I had my projectors I found there wasn't enough light..and i had to cut the header panel to fit the projectors for the high beam bulb and for my H.I.D's(9007). Which in the end my 9007 H.I.D's would not fit cause they were to long(straight design), so I got my hand on 2 denso ballast/ignitors and fitted D2S bulbs(I'm a LandRover tech, aka where i got them), worked perfect!! I then cut up a headlight harness from a cavalier that i got from the junker to fit the projector headlights 9005/9006(My projectors didn't come with a retro fit harness..a.k.a Ebay!!)
After a years worth of driving I bought Blue Ovals Clear Smoked Lens and fitted back my 9007 H.I.D's with 8000k..Awesome!! I aligned them perfect and they don't shine into oncoming traffic like most H.I.D kits..ne-waz that's just imo

Here's some pics of the Projector Type and the Blue Oval Smoked..
