Yea, I have the halo headlights as well. The middle where the ring is around, is for your low beam. The big one, to the left of it is the high beam, and the small one to the right is your turn signals. If I were you, I would seal it with silicone so moisture wont get in. I wish I would've done that before. Now i gotta take out my headlights again just to re-seal them, which is kinda annoying. But, they look hott, lol

Inside projector: High beam and day time driving light (H1)
Halo projector: Low beam (H1)
If you paid more than $150 USD shipped for them you paid too much

There are only 3 bulbs in the headlights you linked to.
There is no bulb further right of the blinker/signal bulb.
The furthest part out is a clear reflector.
Are you sure of what you bought?

I'm guessing it's just a clear reflector (just like how the TYC's have the amber reflectors).

Wow, that's interesting. I wonder how that would look like.

Can you show us a pic of the back of the headlight?

If they are the exact headlights as your link
The reflector has a square cut out so the 7443 signal bulb can shine through it. BUT no 168 bulb

Now that I think about it, it makes sense to have 4 places for the bulbs: 1 for high beam, 1 for low beam, 1 for signal, and 1 for parking (that light on our stock headlights in the little circle thing). Right? Isn't that what the extra hole is for?

I stand corrected.
I looked at the ones I sold and yes there is a small bulb location as stated.

I was wondering the exact same thing, that is why I havent put mine in. I was wondering if there is a way that you can switch the wires temporarilly between the 7443 blinker and the 194/168 parking lights. so that I could get an amber bulb in the 194/168 slot as the blinker and use the 7443 as the parking lights?

The 194 slot is the blinker and the 7443 is an auxillary light

so the projector is your low beam? that's weak!! how do you get the halo to light? wired in the parking lamp? so at night, your car doesn't look so cool because the low beams and the projector are in the same spot, right?
has anyone seen a projector lamp set-up with two (2) halos in each lamp? (like the real angel eyes on a BMW) one on the low, one on the high?
