bulbs for projectors, help please

i've been searching this site for some answers but cant find any. I have some ebay projectors on my 04 sedan, the lights is very dim and looks very dull (the low beams) I wanted to change the bulbs to make the light brighter without having to get HID kit to avoid the hassle and wanted to know what kind of bulbs i needed (H...)?

uhh...H-whatever the projectors came with. i'm gonna venture out and say either h1 or h3. take the bulbs out and look for sort of markings, or read the auction that you bought the projectors from to see what kind of bulbs they take.

Yes the projectors are different.

Take the @#$% bulb out of the projector and read the writing on the side. How many times do you need to be told?
