Do you know if these housings will work with the US Lancer with the halogen 9007? If so, I'm getting these tonight!

Yes they should fit a normal us lancer, the ones i purchased were on ebay and they were listed as Lancer projectors, they are the same lights as the RA so as long as you get ones that will match the year of your car, you should be fine. I am very pleased with the look of them, and they perform well too, i deffinalty think the high beams are brighter then the stock ones, but thats just my opinion

EDIT

I orginally got the H7 ones, but they came broken and sent them back, then i ended up just getting the H3, not to sure if there is that much of a differance besides the bulbs

Notice where the light is emmited? If you put some rubber washers on the HID and move it back some, the light would be emmited to the right place and would look ok. This is just a rough sketch though...

So when some projectors on Ebay are referred to as "H7 HID FRIENDLY" as opposed to "H3 HID UNFRIENDLY", does that mean that H7 bulb is big enough and can be replaced by the same size HID bulbs without much distortion of the beam?

It does look mean. But seriously is H7 in projector without HID that much worse than stockie? How about upgrading to Silverstar or PIAA H7's which are 50% more light. Especially with this new regulation FMVSS No.108 which makes hid conversion kits illegal in USA.

thx for the comments, about the lights, IMO the stock low beams were much better than the ones i currently have, mainly cause the cut of beam is a little low, but right after i got the projectors i put in some hella bulbs, im happy with them, but im doing the projector, HIDS mainly for looks so

^ reseal them is an option, or use a clamp to tighten those rubber covers on the back side of the housing, you should know what I mean
