This is something that i also have been wondering for a while. Im not sure if there are diff kinds of projectors, but arent real projectors have their own source of light (their own bulb or something else). What I mean is, if you have to put the stock bulbs back in, then what is the point of the projectors anyways? :screwy:

i had to use H3 bulbs with my projectors so you might have to change the bulbs up.

my prjetors came with bulbs in them already. i'm assuming all projectors come with bulbs already in them

dsmaniac.......is there a little clip thingy on the back that would hold the bulbs in? it should be a little metal piece that you can un-clip to remove the bulb and then put the new bulb in and clip it back into place. i don't see it in the picture but maybe i'm just blind. let me know what you find

i'm not sure, they might but how would they stay in without falling out? or do they have a place to snap into on the projector?

I wouldnt be suprised, this guy popped up around when ohero got banned. Who knows it can be him or another guy, if a mod can track the IP's and times of registration, then it would clear a few things up.

ok i called the guys at nopi and they said that they think thw atock clip that hold in the headlights should come off and screw on to my projectors , the highbeams use h3 and the low use h4
