retro's FTW, i did 2 members retros in their stock lights using e55 projectors. if u go with R34 lights, go with TSX projectors for lows only. check my sig. they are tsx projectors with stock fogs that are painted yellow.

Yeah, I was wondering how does that work also...Can someone explain? Does it use a special bulb or something?

they use 9005/9006 bulbs. 1 for low 1 for hi. there is a special wire harness they send usually with the lights that converts your 9004 into the to plugs 9005/9006.

NVM, found it:

The new lights output what seems to be 2 bright globs from each healight. The inner most bright glob from both headlights combines into one bright spot in the middle.

I haven't had a chance to drive around yet (downed several beers after finishing), so we'll see. My initial impression is that overall light ouput might be worse than stock, BECAUSE there are bright spots and everywhere in between doesn't seem to be lit up that well.
