you should use d2r only since you have the reflector housing

+1 to the above. They will not fit without modification and D2S does not have the glare shield so those would cause glare in your reflector housings.

they will physically fit but should not be used in reflector d2r housings because the bulbs do not have a ceramic glare shield on the glass which prevents glare. They will blind other drivers if you install them in your reflector housing

One of my lights went out and I have an 04 Coupe, its becoming such a pain to find proper bulbs with the amount of choice available.

Dealer is quoting $320
I have been looking on ebay and came across Phillips 85126+ but its 5300k
should I go with 6000k d2c's? I don't care about blinding others as some ricers in their civics do that to me anyways.

phillips 85126+ is not 5300k, its 4300k and are the same as OEM. Get those. Your logic is very questionable, don't expect to get help with that type of mentality, you should look in the mirror when you call those civics "ricers" as you are no different IMO

How am I a "ricer" when I am replacing a bulb to OEM specifications?

anyways, apologies I didn't mean to come off as such a jerk.

I appreciate your help

one more question, which H4 matches with these phillips? when Im changing one I might as well change both.

d2c is not OEM spec. good luck trying to match bulbs to OEM though, most people give up after trying multiple pairs and not having any luck. Another option is to go with yellow colored foglights so then you don't have to worry about matching. Luminics makes good colored bulbs
