They for a s13. I couldnt get the url to work for some reason. Just go to www.ebay.com and put in the search 7996575810. That is the item number. Those headlights are exactly like mine.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3D50%26fvi%3D1 dual projectors i think they use h3 low beams it should say on the back of the lights or it might be impregnated in the glass of the front lense

dual projectors use H3C for lowbeams. H3 for highbeams and H3C for the fogs. I bought H3C off ebay and the guy ripped me off. The case was for an H3C, but it came with H4 bulbs. You win some, you lose some.

triple projectors use H1 for lowbeam, H3 for highbeams, and H3C(supposedly) for the foglamps (but mine came with USH10)

anyone know where to purchase these bulbs for good price? I notice some xenox lights have 3 prongs at the bottom. Mine only have two. On the harness it has two female holes to plug into the back of the bulb. Are the H3C bulbs 3 or two prong??? Also how i know if i have triple or dual projector?

fyi xenon lights don't = blue coated bulbs. non coated bulbs will last the longest and are the cheapest and put out the most lumens. your local auto store should have what u need

Can someone tell me what the lights in the center are for(the ones closest to the grill. I currently have them set up as blinkers but on a cardomain site it showed ones that looked like the were turned on solid and not blinking???? Also for low beams is the headlight bulbs furthest to the outside of each headlight only supposed to be for low beams then for high beams the outside low beams cut off and the center lights comes on for the high beams. Is that how it is supposed to be? Or should both headlight bulbs be on for low beam but get brighter when you turn high beams on?

they are dual projector lights. the yellow part is for fog lights not blinkers, blinkers go on the bumper. your high beams are seperate projector than your low beams. low beams are on the opp side of the lamps than the fogs. high beams are the middle light. your low beams should stay on when your high beams come on. since the stock flip ups use dual filament bulbs you will need to rewire the silvia lights to have highs and lows at the same time.

am i going to have to run a separte power and toggle switch to turn the fog lights on and off? or should i wire it to my side marker lights. Are the fog lights supposed to run the whole time the headlights are on?

you cant put dual filament bulbs in a projector light, doesnt work. you need to wire the high beams to come on with low beams

Am i going to have to run a separte power source and toggle switch to turn the fog lights on and off? or should i wire it to my side marker lights. Are the fog lights supposed to be on the whole time the headlights are on? and do you know how to wire the headlights up? I got both low beams workin on both headlights but nothing happens when i try to turn the brights on. Could it be because im not using the right bulbs. I currently have h7s in there. I have ush10s for the fogs and the rest are h7s. And the h7s dont fit at all there barely hanging in there but i have seen any bulbs that would work with my headlights. Any ideas?
