And the bulb will not. People confused you. They just didn’t get what you want to do.
I guess I understand what your idea is. You want to use OEM D2R HID bulbs WITH THE MASK for reflector, but you have 9006 housing. Forget about it. The only HID bulbs for 9006 housing are aftermarket crap WITHOUT THE MASK for reflectors. They will rather pass for D2S, D4S series for projector type headlights. There are some real adapters for D2R/D2S, D4R/D4S bulbs on e-bay but not for 9006. Here’s what you need only for 9006.

that was for H7

and this is for 9003.
