How to: projectors+HIDs???
I recently bought some sonars projector headlights and i was told that i could do HIDs with it i was just wondering uhmm how in the hell do i get the bulb in there?? is it as simple as taking the plate thing off at the back on the original bulb? or is there some kind of tip to do it? if you guys could help i would really appreciate it

Not sure if yours are the same as mine, but I made a slit in the rubber grommet thing, and used it to support the back end of my 9006 bulbs. Then I used a zip tie to secure the grommet to the housing.
And with the grommet rotated with the slit facing down, you can't even see it.
I this pic, you can see how the end of the 9006 bulb sticks out a bit, which is why I had to cut a hole in the cap for it to stick out of.

So did you just unscrewed the metal plating that holds the original light bulb? How about using an actual H1 bulb?

Easy as 1 2 3
1) unclip old bulb and remove
2) place new HID bulb in
3) clip it in place - may take a little grunt because of the thicker base
Done
For my rubber cap, I didn't cut it down the side. Seems like a bad idea, plus you have to replace the ziptie every time. I just snipped a small hole in the back of the cap and fed the HID wires through that.
