What are the headlight housing size?
I'm not sure of the size but I've seen a lot of 7x6 housings and was wondering if that's the size for our FCs. I'm wanting to do a full HID conversion with 5000k in the headlights and 3000k in the fogs.

Maybe you could walk outside to the car with a tape measure?

Yes, a quick Google search would have told you an H6054 housing is 7x6.

165mm I did the swap you're talking about and it made a HUGE difference. I wish it was so easy with an FD.

rally lights is a great source.

Its ok not just New Jersey that people ask these questions. People tend not to think sometimes but in this case my tape measure is stuck so I couldnt measure it.
