Default Where to get H4 projectors? help please!!!

Hi everyone.
My main bulb like every 93 civic is an H4 size.

I have just bought these nice H4 bulbs for my civic which were very expensive.

I now have deicded on buying some projectors for my car. BUT all head lights with projectors i have seen out there use H1 bulbs. Why is this? and is there a way of using H4 bulbs in this H1 projectors?

PLEASE HELP PLEASE

links and pics would help, thanks again!!!

does the bulb fit into the projector? Probably not. So you'd need to create some way to make it fit (i.e. cutting and duct tape). Good luck.

you're not going to see any projectors with h4 bulbs simply because as you can see with most if not all of them have two projectors. One for hi and one for low... H4 does both and is double the size.

As far as trying to put an h4 bulb in a h1 housing... good luck! You're better off retrofitting Bi-Xenon HID projectors with all that time wasted.

correct. if its a light out probalem that you are worried about, then just get brighter output bulbs, but make sure that the draw of power is the same.
