Default question about Projector headlights?

What kind of bulbs do projector headlights for an RSX take? Are they the same as the stock headlights?

I was going to put and HID kit in them, Dont say it wont work, I know its not as good as a retro fit but a guy who comes to my work bought cheap ebay projectors for his truck and put an HID kit in there and the cut off line is pretty good and there is no glare at all.

I will do what I did to the ones on my Civic, Put extra sealant on it before I install them. I never had a problem with condensation.
