So far i have completed each step except being able to remove the guides inside the lightbulb socket, I do not have a dremel, so please advise me on what to do. What did you guys use to remove the guides. Please post any suggestions. Here is a picture of the guides.

Ok, I just used a soldering iron and was able to melt away the guides. I tried to clean it up on the inside but still some crap left in there. I installed them and they light up properly, but since it is day time I will be able to tell the difference. Now I have one more question:
-Have there been any problems with this conversion? Melting the Sockets and applying any damage to the stock wiring harness, If so, i will go back to the stock light bulbs, i do not want to have a messed up lighting system on a NEW car.

i doubt there will be any problems.
what kind of bulb are you using.
stock ones are like 60 and that is considerably less than the 90W blue bulbs
peolple use the high *** wattage bulbs on integras w/no problem so you should be ok

you can also widen the slot in the 9006 harness to accept either 9005 or 9006 bulbs w/o modding them.

What about using the NAXOS 9005 100W bulbs for the conversion?
