PS. I love amazon but I try I stay with
"Ships from and sold by Amazon"

Do you run the 9011 in lows and 9012 in highs or vice versa?

Assuming I just need to buy 2 individual bulbs from amazon or ebay I cant find the pair

looks like the gray part gets cut off the tab.

Once mine arrive im going to clip it and sand it smooth and throw them in

I have 2 low and 2 high headlights, all 4 on for high. I run just the low 9012 (2 bulbs in low socket) in my old car.

Side cutters and just make the big tabs the same size as your old bulbs tabs.

2 minutes tops. I did no sanding.

I will probably just take some snips and cut them off I will sandthem because im anal about random sh*t lol
