Default Accord Projectors

I want to get Accord Projectors but I am worried about installing, I have a 2001 Accord LX the headlight bulbs I'm using are know stock 9006 and when I see the specs on the projectors they say

( headlights comes with H3 bulbs for the low beams and H1 bulbs for the high beams) How will that Work when I'm using 9006 For Low beams & 9005 For High Beams, It also says, All wiring for the projector lights are preassembled for essentially plug and plug application. How is that possable Can someone help me out.

Just FYI, you'll get less light output with projectors compared to stock. It's pretty noticeable...my friend has a 2001 Accord 4 banger with projectors and the low beams are rather useless at night IMO.

well it's REALLY simple when you stop to think about it. When they say plug and play...they mean it. Those crap headlights you're about to put in...are wired up so that your 9006/9005 connectors will plug into the harnesses coming out of the new assemblies.

Don't do it man, it's not worth it. You'll regret it later. Use the cash for something better.
