From what I am experiencing yes. I am currently trying to figure out with the seller of my kit if it would be cheaper in the long run for me to exchange the bulbs I have or if I should just buy a new set. If you are worried about ordering the wrong bulbs just wait until you receive the housings and you can verify that they are H1. This could save you time and money in the long run.

So I got the second set of lights that you linked today. They do have H1 bulbs but unusual enough they have the sockets for 9005 and 9006. I sent my 9006 bulbs back and should have H1 here in about a week. I'll post up if you need to modify the cables they send you. If you do don't be worried it's only about 5-6 each at oreily. I'll keep you posted.

That's what I thought too. I just installed mine without the ballasts since I have to wait on the right bulbs. They look amazing.

I promise I'll post pics. I went out to take some tonight and I realized one of my parking lights (yellow light in headlight) was out. I wanted to take pics but the OCD in me wouldn't let me. I promise they are coming.

Excuse the dirtyness of the truck but here is a pic of the new headlights/turnsignals installed in the daytime. Tomorrow I'll have some at night with the lights on.
