Has anyone installed these as headlights? They look to me like a direct replacement for an H1 bulb, unless I'm missing something.

i think you'll be disappointed if thats how they are designed... H7 bulbs allow light to be thrown 360 around the bulb. i would be very dubious about using those and getting a good pattern out of the coupes projectors.

they MAY be ok for H4 replacement but even then reflector type lenses are designed around quite a small light source point, and i fear they maybe too big. (light source being created in the wrong place results in horrible light scatter like you get on HID replacements)
