What is the difference? I was told I need the D2S's with the Halogen Housings?

D2S bulbs are for projectors.

D2R bulbs have a built-in shield to create a light cutoff similar to the one which is already present in the projector headlight design. A D2R bulb will still work in a projector housing, but it won't be quite as bright.
