    Well if the ebay 1 pieces takes the 9004 bulbs then yes... just do the conversion on the DA harness then pop in a 9007 bulb into your ebay lights (after trimming off tab) and plug and play..

    what about if someone acutally post pictures of the light output on the road. All i see are direct pictures of the headlights. From there, we can really see the diffennce on how well the 9007's light up the road compare to 9004's

    Well with hids, you would have to retrofit projectors into the housing or else you're going to get alot of unwanted blinding glare.

    This tegtip is mainly for the use of 9007 bulbs which is brighter than the 9004's..

    i just got a set of the one-pieces off ebay, and it has all the tabs for a 9004, but for some reason i cant insert the 9004 in them. plus, they say "9007" on the front....

    they have all 3 tabs for a 9004 though. am i losing my mind????

    just did mine in about 15 minutes. This was a piece of cake, you really dont need to splce any wires at all just pop out the two wires and switch em, I'm happy as can be.

    Thanks! I'm very happy with them..

    I have been flashed a few times now. So i just flash my high beams and piss them off even more, lol...

    I actually spliced my wires, I only have them twisted together. I plan on crimping them together soon when i get around to it

    Ok so this is sorta pissing me off.. Ever since i did the conversion and when i drive at nite.. I always get flashed!!.. Well tonight i got pulled over by a cop because the he said i didn't put my low beams on while he was coming my direction.. I told him THEY ARE ON.. he said they are REALLY BRIGHT, well not to mention i just got my temps but i ended up knowing the cop so he let me off the hook but told me i better not drive again until i get my license.. I said ok and then i was on my way back home..

    What can i do to fix this issue?? Are they just Aiming to high into the view of other ppl's face???? I looked and don't see how to aim them lower. There's only ways to make them aim LEFT or RIGHT..

    Please help, i don't want to have to change them back!!

    You could try aiming them...personally I dont see the big deal but whatever. We also have problems when using white fogs of getting pulled over and being accused of having highs on but then again most of us now have yellow..

    You can aim the headlights up and down. Many members have adjusted them lower or higher.

    You are turning the wrong aiming screw.
