Can this bulb be used as a low beam bulb only? My car has a separate high beam housing.

That is exactly what an H11 bulb is - low beam only. The H9 would be a high beam only bulb. H13 would be dual-filament (low/high).

It could, but it does have the 3-wire plug for the wiring, which is a Low-high beam bulb. I spent a lot of time researching this out for my motor home. "Some" vehicles do have a 4 headlight system that uses ONLY a low beam bulb (no high beam inside it) with the seperate high beam bulb too. It stays on when the high beam bulbs are activated. If your old bulb has has only 2 prongs on it, then it is one of those systems, and you need to find the correct bulb.

It's a dual purpose bulb, but your car has to be designed to use this bulb. There are two filaments inside. One is shielded and the other is not. I believe, the low beam is the shielded one. The bulb is keyed so it fits in your car in one orientation.

No, the factory headlights use one dual filament bulb ( hi & lo beam in one bulb) and these headlights are wired for two separate bulbs. And by the way I think these headlights are absolute junk the are impossible to aim correctly.

yes, but they will not be HID. You have to cut the plug from the hid ballast and use it for the low beam.

Depends on the car I believe... My car has two sets of bulbs, one is low the other high. Since I added the Opt7 low beams, I have not been in a situation where I have needed my high beams at all, they are that good.I believe they do have High beam replacement though if you felt they were needed. Just stick the the 5000k which is the pure white... If you go higher or lower, you will get a lot of reflection when it snows or rains.

No they are only low beam. But I rarely need to use my high beams now that I have these bulbs.

I have a 35w but I have the high & low beam HID bulbs and it would not work for the High beams on mine, I could only get low beams.

Hi yes this bulb operates at high and low beam light if you need only one beam you need the h7 bulb type hope I helped you out ;-)

Dear buyer: I think your car headlight house only can install 9004/7-2 HID bulb . Low beam HID/high beam halogan.

I'm not sure what you mean by saying "beam casing"? If you can currently replace the bulbs on your car, then these will work as long as you get the equivalent bulb number...The only thing you need to consider is the back of these bulbs. They have fans built into the back, so they will require additional space behind the bulbs. Nothing too crazy, but I had to remove my coolant tank to install one of the bulbs on my Toyota because there wasn't enough clearance...

you will want h7 for low beams. Don't waste your money on high beams bulbs h1 , it takes an hid bulb around 1 minute to hit full power output so it's hard on them if you keep turning them on and off. FYI i had to rewire my factory wiring harness plug on the there harness because there pins where not fitting.

Hi OdvhutWe appreciate the question, and these bulbs will work for LOW Beam application only.You will need 9005 for teh HIGH Beam application.Thank you for choosing The Wires Zone.

Get an HID conversion kit. That should help with you lows unfortunately it won't help you high beam.

I don't see why you couldn't. The illumination is better than oem bulbs. So if you're looking for something to brighten the road better this is a solid choice. If you're looking for a whiter light don't expect hid white. It's whiter than oem just not full white.
