I thought you couldnt put the d2r bulb for a d2s housing b/c it wont line up or something.

03-05 headlights has the d2r which has some masking to blocks the light from going all over the place

06-07 headlights has the d2s which has no masking since projectors are used to control the direction of light.

Yea, but i thought you couldnt put a d2r bulb into a projector housing bc something didn't allow fitment of the d2r bulb to fit into the meant to be d2s housing

Yup, you have to cut a small notch in the d2r to make it fit in the d2s.
