While messing with my lights a while back, I noticed where the lights twist into the housing, that part can be removed. this leaves a larger hole maybe two inches in diameter. My question is, could you put standard round headlamps into the housings? of course you would have to cut a matching hole through the reflecting part of the housing. I've been thinking about this for a while now but don't have the funds to risk it. Also, if this works, would the lights be aimable? please help with this. Thanks

You must have been thinking about how funny you are while looking for a picture of a light bulb on yahoo images. I'm talking about the round headlamps you can get at autozone and the likes. By "Standard" I meant not HID

I thought about actually adding a second 9005 blueish bulb and just having it in there to add brightness. Ever think of that?
It might need a custom shield guard, but:
2 9005 bulbs = bright!

Regular round bulbs? Are you talking about projectors? I don't know of any "round bulbs".

not bulbs but say a jeep headlight (Just an example). it's round and covered by a plastic lense. Would it be possible to fit that into the housing of the contour headlight with modification?
