Well if there is only a spot for 1 bulb in the housing, and your set has separate bulbs for high and low beam, you most likely bought the wrong set.

i know my 99 Civic's OEM headlights only had one bulb, and looking at pictures of the 7th gens it looks like theres is the same setup. It just has two filiments in it, and one of them can burn out, thats why sometimes only the high (or low) works on one side. Just install the one bulb and you will be set.

look around on the internet for different headlight housings that might have two holes, one for high and one for low.
