i will probably just end up going to my local aftermarket parts shop and have them give me a hand. or go on a web site and find what i am looking for. or ask my friend

for that HID color chart showed in first post of this thread,, i got different color chart, a little different from that one above, especially for 5k or 57k..

Bringing another thread back from the dead, but does anyone have information about the gen 4 housing? I heard they don't have halos or LEDs

Nevermind, I found them.

They use an H7

Here's what I need clarified. The website says it's projector for low beam and halogen for high beam, when I put on the high beams do the projectors turn off? And how does it work for the auto headlight setting?

Lows turn off when the highs are engaged. That's how they all work, like I was saying in your other thread though, 2 diodes and a capacitor will keep them on. Like $10 with shrink wrap.

The auto setting it depends on the year, 05-06 your DRLs are the parking lights, 07+ the low beams are the DRLs.

Right, so I turn the car in during the day time and the projectors come on. I turn the car on at night and the car will provide more power to the headlights. Is that going to be a problem?

Should be fine. The only problem is if you run HIDs in those projectors the light won't be directed correctly (everywhere) and you'll need a relay harness for 07+.

Won't need an alignment, the reflector and lens are designed for halogen bulbs which have a small filament that emits light. HIDs have a much larger area that they emit light from.
