This extra-wide plastic top ear can be easily trimmed or filed to make the HIR fit the bulb receptacle of an 9005 or 9006. Once the trimming/filing is done, the HIR goes directly into the headlamp and the existing sockets snap on.
A few minutes work with a file or Dremel tool will greatly enhance the usefulness of these bulbs with regard to those cars which might not, strictly speaking, have been designed with these exact bulbs in mind. In fact, it's amazing how simple and easy it is to remove a few square millimeters of soft plastic. You can even trim them with toenail clippers, (please take a series of small "bites" instead of a big chomp). Five minutes, tops, and then these bulbs will fit in any car that takes 9005 and 9006 bulbs. Owners of certain late-model US cars have reported minor problems, easily corrected, with the shape of the vehicle's light housings. The housings never need to be modified in any way, only the bulbs. Please email if you have any questions about specific fit and suitability factors.

why not just modify the part and send it out us? wouldn't it be more convient for buyers? so then its not a plug and play i'm assuming just needs a little modification.

Shipping is $4 in the US, USPS priority insured. This cost covers up to 8 bulbs at a time (total per box). International shipping is available at prevailing rate; e-mail MaxLumens@FineMotoring.com for a quote. |
so if we order a pair 29.95 + 29.95 , total shipping would be plus $4.00? some what combine shipping? just wanted to verify that please.
$63.90
Let me know when you guys get yours installed, whats the difference from buying xenon bulbs off of ebay and his HIRS? is there really a huge amount of difference?
Why not just go with a pair of techone's HID for $250 shipped, and not have to worry about changing the bulbs? or another set of HIds! and also not having to worry about high or low beams? 63.90 for a pair, after a while you'd replaced them and in time the cost will add up enough to purchase a set of true hids.?
