well last night i just put on some jdm zenki headlights.first question.while installing i noticed the place where the highbeams goes in is different from the one remaining usdm headlight. so does anyone know what bulb type it takes and what is needed to wire it into my stock harness?

second question.whoever ownd them before me painted the inside of the housings black is there anyway to remove it witout damaging the relective coating in the back?

any help would be appreciated other then the dual housings and no different highbeams i dont know anything about my new lights

No, you'll mess it up if you remove it. Just swap headlights with someone who wants blackhoused.

you could try some lacquer thinner. if it is just spray paint it will most likely come off. just try it in a spot that isnt noticeable. if that doesnt work maybe try some other thinners. good luck
