The main difference is that the J-spec headlights use plastic lenses, and the UK sec headlights use glass lenses.

J-spec Headlights

Low Beam = 9006J (use 9005/HB3)

High Beam = 9005J (use 9005/HB3)

 

UK Spec Headlights

Low Beam = 9006/HB4

High Beam = 9005/HB3

great thanks for that so i need to get hb3 bulbs for low and high beam..not hb4's

 

thankyou

 

The correct bulb spec is 9005J and 9006J which are a different fit and not available in the UK.

 

Instead you can fit 9005/HB3 in high and low beam on the J-spec headlights. On the low beam you will need to trim a rib off the bulb wiring connector so it will fit, very easy job though.
