aftermarket headlights?

danielle ryan · 05-13-2008, 12:26 PM

i have a 07 civic ex coupe. i had the hid conversion kit installed, but i also bought the balcked out halo headlights.... when we went to put the headlights in, turns out that the headlight housing has a different bulb in there that does not match up with the hid bulb i now have.... is there any way to maybe get a different hid bulb in the different size, or.... i really dont know. i called a few places and they dont know anything... or i guess if worse comes to worst, ill just sell my halos. ANY help would be great.
thanks,
danielle.

You'd have to change the socket on the ballast as well, IIRC. Your socket for now accepts 9006 bulbs, so you'd have to use a different bulb as well as change the socket.

Moved to Lighting.
