I am sitting in my garage with my wheel off and everything kinda stuck. I bought rd h8 angel eyes of ebay. I got to the housing and have the 2 long screws in hand but my angel eyes arent bulbs that replace the original . Its like 2 cylinder shapes with a plug? I am searching here but if anyone has any advice woud be appreciated....

I just had a look at realoem.com and I'm pretty sure that your AE doesn't use a H8 bulb. The LCI sedan uses a H8 for sure. Not 100% sure you bought the right bulb.

Do you have a coupe or sedan? H8 are used for Coupes or LCI Sedan models.

Yeah, you got the wrong bulbs. You should check out the LUX 5 for your car. They may cost more than RD but everyone loves them.

Yep you have the H8 style for the 2009+ models, we have LED upgrades for the pre-LCI models if you need a set.
