Don't quote me on this or anything, but I believe you use your stock lights. I don't know exactly, but I had a idea. Maybe you can put your brights in the dim part and the dim's where the brights would normally go. I dunno, I think it would be cool to be a little diffrent if it will work.

If I were you I would save up and get a H.I.D kit. Maybe thats just me though. Actually I have a friend that makes H.I.D kits. I'm gonna have him make a 8000K one for our eclipse once we get the duel projectors with the 97-99 conversion. But yeah... H.I.D.

what type of projector? singles or duals? singles use the bulbs shuwa specified. dual projectors use stock size bulbs (9006/9005). if ya don't know the difference, dual projectors are the ones with a projector lense for both high and low beam. single projectors only have a lense on the low beam and have a regular reflector for the high beam.

I have PIAA SUPER PLASMA H3 for the Low Beams and PIAA SUPER PLASMA H1 for the High Beams.

I also have PIAA PLASMA BLUE bubs for the bumper lights and PIAA EXTREME WHITE for the blinkers.

Gee - I guess I like PIAA or I got a great deal on them!!!
