Projector Headlights!

Noone has answered my questions since 2 days. I just ordered these lights, and I was wondering if they were compatible with my car? I have an 04' US Lancer ES with the Halogen 9007 bulbs for both High and Low beams. I recently tried to paint the headlights myself and I screwed up ROYALLY! I managed to crack the chrome piece and was unable to fix it. I've been wanting these lights anyway, but I wasn't sure if they fit with my bulbs. Thanks to anyone that answers!!!

Yeah, those headlights should come ready to work on your factory setup. Enjoy the cruise!

Would they be better with HID's? I was thinking of getting them too but wasn't sure if our stock lights would work.

What is the light setup on these? The outer corner is the turn signal, but which one is the actual headlight? Thanks a million guys! And I will enjoy that cruise, first vacation all summer...

The clear bubble thing is the main light source.

Is this a reputable online store to order HID Conversion kits :HIDStores? They have them for $99.99 with bulbs and ballasts! I was going to order both the H7 and H1 conversion kits to go along with my new housings! What do you guys (and girls) think?

Nevermind, they try to play you like a sucker. They send you an invoice that you can't pay with credit card, so they take your money and run. Anyone know where I can get some good, inexpensive HID conversion kits for the H7 and H1 bulbs? Or shoudl I just go with the Hella Optiplex bulbs with Xenon? Thanks again!

Next time, you should probably post this thread before you buy them

Thanks RallyDave, but I sorta figured they would work, I just wanted to see if they were a good quality. They are EXCELLENT quality. The only bad thing is that they sent me the wrong ones, so I have to wait another week. They sent me the ones with the Amber side marker when I specifically told them I wanted the clear. Oh well, I guess it gives me time to get new bulbs!

I decided to get the Hella Optilux XB bulbs. I got both the H1 and H7 sets for $60!

I'm sorry, I forgot that I edited the post before. I had a question up there but I answered it myself and I bumped it. Doh!

Will post pics soon!

Ok, I ordered the black housings with the clear reflector, but they are sold out for another 2 weeks. This is my car.I was thinking maybe I should get the chrome housings instead, but I'm not sure what look I want. What do you think? Also, I've ordered a Banbo HID H3 conversion kit for these housings! I hope to have them soon!
