Its probrably an H4H bulb. Kind of like an H4 but the prongs that come off are spaced a lil different. JHPUSA.com sells them.

yeah i found out that the bulb is actually an h3c. i found it at this site called racinglab.com..the guy was pretty helpful and they have a diagram on the site of diffrent bulbs and stuff. so i got em for like 60.00 bucks.. i still don't know why the bulbs on my lights say h10 though.. but the bulbs haven't come yet so it's not a 100% but the guy said this is usually the bulb most japenese cars use.. so thanks for the help guys, i will post up when the bulbs get here!!

if anybody is looking for replacement bulbs for the r32 projector headlamps, they are indeed H3C (as mentioned before) and here is a link to a site that sells them for much cheaper than $60/pair! Tried, tested, and true... they work well!
