9006 - the same as the USDM lights.

sorry bro not true. my 9006 is just sitting in the socket. it clearly doesnt fit. the lowbeam socket on the JDM housing, has a clasp to hold the bulb in place like a h3 bulb. is there no one that has JDM ITR non hid headlights in here?

Yes, it is true. If the 9006 bulbs aren't fitting properly in your housings, then something else is wrong. Are you certain they're halogen housings, and that nothing is missing from them?

You originally stated that these were non-HID (halogen) housings. Clearly, a halogen bulb is not going to fit properly in an HID housing. The HID versions utilize a D2S HID capsule.

If you look very closely on the headlight housing, the correct bulb number is etched there in each dersired spot!

Yah I did! Im still learning about my DC. I went from a CRX w/ b18, to doing a front end conversion on my DC. What a change. So I wil start over. OK I have
the JDM ITR HID headlights. I had to remove the HID unit from the headlight.
Now there is a clasp that held the D2S capsul in place.OK. It looks like a big h3
housing. Now what I need to know is, since I have completly removed the HID UNIT, can I run a halagen bulb? From what I have been told, is that the HID is only an oem option. So what I get out of that ,is that it ran a halogen before the upgrade. Or is it a completly differant Headlight that is installed for the HID Factory option?

Completely different headlights from the factory. The lenses are completely different.


Why on earth would you try to make an HID headlight into a nonHID headlight? The HIDs are so much better.

Is it just the bulb? Or is it the ballast? Igniter? You do not necessarily have to get the "JDM OEM HID" unit to make it work.

I dont know? I was supposed to have 6000k in both but only one was installed. The other one is all crusty and ****. That one started to smoke. It also makes a buzzing noise when I turn it on. My passenger side works cherry. That one has the new unit in it. This place I baught it from screwed me over probly. It took them over 4 months to get it to me from canada. Then when I got it, they only shipped one headlight. So the one they sent to complete my order is the one that is shitty!
The company is called IMPORT ADRENELIN. If you are planning to buy from them DONT! They lagg and thier customer skills suck *** !
