No, Do not get them =] They are nice... But, IF u really must have HIDs then get em... I had them and i thought the light quality was very nice (I had the 8000k kit, VERY blue) But, I sold the kit, and i did a retrofit... Now i have outstanding ligh performance that no aftermarket kit can compare too

Lemme guess... You are going to be spending around 400$? (Guessing)

I would get some projectors, and some nice audi/bmw projectors, and do the right thing =]

Since u are in Rochester, I can meet you somewhere half way, if u want to see my retrofit... Im in Woodbury/Syosset/Jericho, LOL (exit 43?)

lemme know

yes, a retro fit would only take a little bit more work and maybe 50-100 dolalrs more, but you get the true look of hids and the true output too

lol... thanks jay.. i may have to do that... i was thinking of getting the 6k kit... but i may just do the retro fit projectors.... is it really that much of a difference? converted H4 vs OEM projectors?

So if i was to do the retro, i would need:

1 pair of projector lights(prolly black TYC's like Impulse's
OEM projectors off of prolly a BMW...
the HID bulbs and ballasts from them too?


Anything else?

I have my H4s converted. I like them, I mean they're not as good as the setup on my BMW M3 but I didn't expect it to be. It's a hell of a lot better than the stock halogens though! If I ever get my lazy ass to take pictures and scan them I'll post the light pattern mine emit. I think my Honda's HIDs are 8000k and the BMW's are probably 4300k if I recall correctly, so the Honda's are waaay bluer.
