Can you take H7 to H1 bulbs? also what do you guys think of these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33716

not in that application. An H1 bulb is longer than an H7 and the bulb would contact the metal plate that forms the cut off. In other applications, it would be possible by adding something to make the bulb inlet smaller.

I meant an H1 bulb in a projection/angel eyes setup... not in those tail lights lol.. I bought those tail lights... do you like them?

Actually, I didnt click the link because my computer is being slow, and I figured those were a projector auction.

Most higher quality projectors have H1s, you only have to worry about H7 with depos.

Prez is right. No h1 for h7.

Take some pics when you get in the tail lights. I want to get those or these....

See I wanted to get those too but my friend who got them had all sorts of problems with his brake light circuit error... I just got that fixed once and for all so I didn't want to mess around with them... I'll have pics sometime this week or next... I was the winner on that auction :P

Are they? They remind me of the new G35 coupe!!

The jrhaile lights looks nicer....... Maybe have i a bad taste!??

Dutch: I'm certainly not saying that (i like your car, not too much, or too little). I just cant decide if these look really ricey or really cool. I am attempting to adress some of the areas of the e36 that look dated, right now i'm into lighting...

H1 to H7 foglights is nice, because they are brighter.(i believe so)

Yes i confirm that. When the lights are installed and when we've seen a pic then we really could say what the nicest taillights are!

id photoshop a pic if my pc wasnt about to die. I can barely be online. Opening word and explorer use all my ram. I don't know why. My HD is only half full and I defrag daily.
