The 9005 recepticle assembly can be easily modified to fit the 9006 plug, however, giving you some bright-arse low beams. If interested, let me know.

They won't damage your wire harness. One of the big differences with them is that they don't have a coated tip on the bulb itself. The 893's use a coated tip which hinders the light. 885's are clear all the way so it lets more light out. It's definitely an easy and cheap upgrade and makes a huge difference. They aren't projector fogs, they are flood fogs, so you won't see a huge difference in distance. -Dan 1998.5 SVT "Black and Blue" #5292 See here for MOD list.

Very clean white, no hint of blue. Nice and bright. $20/bulb. Dan Parmelee 1999 Acura Integra SiR-G coupe "I heard Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms" "Word, bitch! Phantoms like a muhfuka"
