Default Halo headlights. hid bulb size?

Thinking of purchasing these headlights but wondering if ill have to get different size hid bulbs then the ones I have right now in my stock housing. I currently have 9007 don't know what these will take.

Edit: my fog lights don't work and I have very poor output from my current hids. My stock brights are brighter...(Think i got a crap brand awhile ago)Would 35w 6ks from ddmtuning do me good, or go for the 55w. I'd just like to be able to see the dang road when night/rainy/snow.

Don't get a one piece projector headlamp. Your lighting will actually be worse. Don't get a pnp kit either, the light is way too scattered. Retrofitting is the way to go. Get a set of lightning lamps and get those retrofitted, the difference is incredible.

Plug n play kit?

And I'm trying to get something off that website because I can get it for 80-90% off

Yea, plug and play. I'll take a look myself and see if I can offer any good suggestions. As far as all the facts of HIDs, Stuckzipper is your man. He knows a good bit about the facts of HIDs. Plus the thing about those 1 piece projectors are that they never fit that well at all...

With it being off this website, this design would probably be the best of what they have. The LEDs are notorious for burning out, but its not going to be much better with the one piece projectors.

This is what I would do in your position, but its your money. If you want a couple more opinions on the one piece projectors, swing by the 1997-2003 section. They'll tell you the same thing I did. As far as the best lighting capabilities, talk to BrowningSCrew. Hes earned the "Residential Light *****" title around here anyway!

Also do the fog lights take the same bulb size as my headlights?
