Icon2 headlight bulb problem please help.

want to get new and brighter headlight bulbs so i went online to advance auto parts and for my 98 civic hatch its got these here bulbs that are fairly big and have 3 large connectors on them

http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...644#fragment-2

chose those cause they have the same lumins as the bluish ones and the bluish ultras so same lumins minus the bluish film i would asume means brighter. and there 10/20 bucks cheaper than the other 2 (links to them below there like the same bulbs but looks like more and more blue tint was added i dont know)

http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...15004|L3*15644

anyway..... the headlight i got in there now is that little tiny itsy bitsy h3 bulb with the little wire that comes on it.

sooooooo what do i do get new h3 ones or find out how to hook up the big ones that advances websight says are sapost to fit my car.

Do you have OEM headlights? When I switched to projector lights, they used the tiny lights you mention
