These are the only ones I have. My truck just got sold today, so I can't take anymore. Hope these are good enough

i thought you couldnt switch from high to low on an HID kit??? why would i need that solenoid?

what if i just get either one of the projectors you listed above and just install a HID kit and go from that?
Well basically you wire up the solenoid to your high beams. Theres a shield inside the projector that moves when the high beams are activated. You can switch from low to high and back, its just the shield that moves, the bulb doesn't turn off or flicker. The shield moves so that the cutoff line is higher up. You could do a retro with just a single projector, but you'd lose your high beams. Seeing as its a single bulb and there is not solenoid that moves. So I guess its just a matter if you want your high beams or not.

There's a difference for bi-xenon. Which one are you buying?

I don't really know if they make good aftermarket H1 projectors, most of the new ones out there now are either D1S, or the more popular D2S bulbs. You could try and find one.

your truck needs to be cleaned!!!

the bulb im buying is a dual bulb i believe........

there originally 500 bucks and im getting them for 75...just bc he bought the wrong kind....(hes made of money ig)

Hahah I know. Went through a few big puddles that day . It wouldn't really take much to make new mounts. With my new truck, I can modify my 9006 bulb to fit inside a 9005 housing. Its pretty easy actually. Just look at the new housing, and at your bulb and see which one needs to be bigger or smaller. But as for that retro with the dual bulb. Sounds like a pretty good deal. I'd definitely say go with it.
