There is a thread in the stickies that lists the specs for all bulbs. "FAQ's" I believe. Check there for your answer.

the circlular orange thing in our headlights, most people remove when painting, he needs the size of that. nothing to do with the bulb.

I'm pretty sure I have a set of headlights at home all taken apart that I could measure that part for you. I can also send you my old clear lenses if you'd like and some extra material so you can make your own. My old set of clear lenses are a little too round to fit inside so all you really need to do is dremel/sand them down a bit more. Just pay the few bucks for shipping it out. Let me know if you want them

Thanks for your offer bro, but im thinking of trying something different. If you get a chance, can you please take measurements of the amber lens that you have at home.

I'll try and remember to take the measurement tonight

I've been using a flourescent light fixture cover I bought from Home Depot. I used one of the more expensive ones that come in a seperate box as it is alot thicker than the sheets you can buy.

I would like to know too. I have been trying to find a projector that will fit. It's a lot harder to do a projector turn signal in the sedan than the coupe.
