you want D2S bulbs

do NOT make the same mistake i did and get the d2r bulbs

d2s = projectors
d2r = reflectors

i highly suggest philips ultinons 6000k!

everyone has them but they are perfect!

They'll look "cooler" but they won't put nearly as much light out as a set of 4100K bulbs.

Congratulations, Ryan!!!

2k6 projectors are a great mod.

I got the Phillips Ultinon 6000k bulbs and have been very happy with them. They look great at night and really light up the road. They are technically not as bright as the 4300k bulbs, BUT they are five times brighter than your old reflectors.

The only down side is the price. I got mine at suvlights.com, but they were expensive. Don't forget to flip the combobox from D2R to D2S if you buy them there.

Nope. It's as simple as taking off the front bumper, removing 4 bolts, unplugging the headlight. Repat steps backwards and you're finished.
