Default JDM headlights...bulbs?

I ordered some JDM headlights from ebay and got them today...the place where the bulbs go look really weird and are nothing like what the US version headlights are like...can anyone tell me what kind of lights I need to put in these...do I need to like do some kind of conversion? or what?

hehehehe the Karma-Police smile upon you... I was just looking at this yesterday.
Not because I needed to do it, but because I was curious.

Hope this helps!!!

Ok, so you got the JDM Accord SIR look-alikes. Which bulb sockets do they use, H4 or 9006? 9006 would be your original headlight bulbs, H4's are JDM. If they also use the JDM-style corners, then you will probably want to swap connectors on the corners as well so they blink.
