9006 == low beam
9005 == high beam. just different size/type of bulbs

draxcaliber

they also have different connectors so you can't plug them into the wrong connector socket. but some people snip the little teeth and such that prevent improper insertion because 9005 bulbs are higher wattage (brigther) and don't have a cover on the tip blocking some of theit output. so they get brighter low beams.

Yeah, the 9005 to 9006 mod is the only way to go. I'm running four 9005 Nokya Arctic Whites. I tried the Silverstars at first, but I prefer the bulbs I have now.
