Facelift headlight - bulb holder missing a bit?

[JoshH]

Hi guys,

just bought a set of facelift headlights, the standard bulb holders for dipped beam are different both sides....is something missing?

What looks like the normal one

The one with something missing??

Thanks in advance

facelift and pre facelift are different bulbs that's why so no. use h1 bulbs on your facelift and slightly bend the clip till its nice and tight.

The pics are from a pair of facelift projector lamps mate :s

how weird. they should be the same :/

I know that's what I thought! Did Honda do a xenon option on any model pre facelift?

 

[scabbytramp]

nope they didn't.

Right, it's a genuine honda xenon lamp, the inside of the lamp has HID Written on it and the other has halogen. So it must be a d2s.

I hope they look the same as a h1 hid in the other when lit up!

One D2S bulb the same colour temp as my H1 HID later and all sorted
