Default 9006> 9005 conversion...

the search server is down right now.. and i was wondering how do you make it so 9005 bulbs can fit into the headlight socket. do have to shave down the 2 plastic pieces sticking out inside the plug? how would i go about doing this? it seems so hard to fit into the small area.. any suggestions?
