Send them back and get 9005/HB3 instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 The bloke is talking out of his backside. They're not the same and won't fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeatphr Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 There are some bulbs that are interchangable but Nic is right they wont fit into the lenses of your car. Hope you get everything fixed up! We sell HID's also let me know if you need any other help. Cheers, Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSupraNA Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 9006 will not fit, you will need to get 9005 and do some modication. Some 9005 seem to fit fine, other 9005 you will need to trim both the side lugs, and little grooves, PM me if you have any issues bro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only when fitting replacement bulbs that you mess around removing the side lugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest timalbert Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 ok,another option for me is to get uk glass headlamps,if i did would these 9006 bulbs fit? also,on the bulb it doesent say whether its hb3 or hb4? basically im thinking long term and am thinking would these fit the glass lamps? is there a difference between hb3 and hb4 which i believe i need for the uk glass lamps,please help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 9005 = HB3 9006 = HB4 J-spec headlights use 9005/HB3 in high and low beam UK spec headlights use 9005/HB3 in high beam, 9006/HB4 in low beam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
