Eagle Eyes use H4 bulbs.

So do I need a different bulb or another wiring harness? I don't even see separate wiring harnesses on the site.

If you can get a 9004 kit but with H4 HID bulbs instead of 9004 HID bulbs, you will be set.

Which one of these is the correct 9004 kit?

They're both correct, it just depends on which kit you prefer. The Xtreme Digital kit has higher quality ballasts. Just ask Steve if he can swap out the 9004 bulbs with H4 bulbs.

I've been running the Volt kit in my fogs for a couple years now without a glitch

Here's the thing. I ordered this:

http://www.kbcarstuff.com/Xtreme-Dig...s-p/xt-hid.htm

With H4's, I went to a shop and they told me they wouldn't fit. Aren't the H4's 9003? That would seem correct since the Eagles Eyes are made for '93-94, which come with 9003's if I'm reading past posts correctly.

here's what you seem to be not understanding.

your '92 LS originally came with 9004 bulbs for the headlights, later (93-94) LS' came stock with H4/9003 bulbs.

so if you want to run H4 eagle eyes on your car with HID you would need a hybrid HID kit, with ballast-side connectors for the 9004 plugs in your car, and H4/9003 bulbs. if you already bought a 9004 hid kit then all you need are some H4/9003 bulbs.

And on that page you can select bulb fitment, where I chose H4. Is that not correct?

The only thing that isn't clear is whether the dropdown is the bulb connector and bulb, or just the bulb. I'm gathering that it's just the connector.

It would not be a problem. You would need to order an H4 HID kit and request a 9004 harness. I can do that for you. Just send me a PM with your order number once it's placed and I will make sure it gets taken care of for you =)

I have been talking to you via email for two weeks, knucklehead. :-) I even called once but I didn't get a name.

Right now I have the kit installed, but without the Eagle Eyes. I guess the two big boxes in my trunk with headlights in them wasn't enough to make him realize I needed those installed as well. On the plus side they didn't charge me anything and won't til I come back to get the Eagle Eyes put in. The visibility is WAYYYYY better even with the stock headlights on. I don't have fogs (which I never used) or brights (which I can't imagine needing with this setup). I'll go back next Saturday for the finish. Definitely glad I didn't go higher than 4300K.

As it stands they are definitely aimed too high as several people have flashed brights at me in the morning

Dubbayoo - I had a feeling but wasn't 100% positive =) Glad you're enjoying the kit! Did you go with the Xtreme kit or the Volt kit?
