LOL...you are correct. Your headlights no longer take 9004 light bulbs anymore, I believe it's H4's. I honestly wouldn't know yet since I dont have Euro Headlights. 
Anyways, why Silverstars? If anything, you should return those and invest in some PIAA. It'll be much better in the long run.

OK, so now that everybody knows why Im such a nubbie, does anybody want to buy these headlight bulbs (Sylvania 9004 ST/2) off me?
They are not used (obviously) and I bought them for $28. Make me an offer.
The Silverstars are on the left, my H4 stock bulb on the right.

I think Walmart will take them back even if they are opened and you do not have a receipt. They have a really liberal return policy and you could put the return money toward an exchange for the H4. Or take them back to the place where you bought them. Just an idea though.
