Howdy Guys/Gals,

Ok so I'm planning on picking up HIDs from Danscreations. He is selling stock ballasts, igniters, and bulbs. Bought it all brand new from the Acura dealership (Honda Parts) for a TSX for $350 + shipping. At first I thought he was also going to include projectors, but after reading the thread again I don't think so anymore. I already sent a deposit to him so the hids are mine. What I really want though is to get HID with projectors. I've tried to research a little here and there, but I'm still unsure of what HID Projectors I should purchase. What do you guys recommend? Whats a fair price for them?

Heres the link to danscreations thread (http://www.7thgencivic.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=206415) If you could please read his post and tell me if i'm right about him not giving me projectors. I really thought the price included it, now I'm not sure. Is it a good buy?

Yes there are no projectors cause I PMed him bout it. As far as the prices go IMO its a little bit high. You can prob get a whole TSX set for 450 if youre looking in the right place.

Dan seems nice enough. I just called him I told him I misunderstood him and ask for my money back. He said he would give me a call back when he gets to the shop. Dunno what that means. But I sure do hope he give me my money back. I need it to get the lights!

Turtle thanks for looking that up! I kinda want the TSX projectors though. They say those are easy to retrofit into my 05 civic. I'm not a super handy man so I don't want something that will invovle way to much cutting, cuz I know i'm going to screw up somewhere.

just surf on HIDPlanet.com and look in the for sale forum. I found some tsx projectors for about 2 bills

Yep...thats my plan. What do you guys think of the AUDI TT, BMW 3 Series projectors? or the BMW 5 Series projectors?

 
Rep Power: 304

Hey turtle, U have TSX projectors? Can you send me some pics of what your install consisted of? Any chance you have time sometime during the summer to help me install these babies? Seeing as how you've done it before it would be nice to have someone that knows what they are doing.

s2ks are costly i guess valeos are too. The AUDI TT, and 3 Series projectors are exactly the same. They are the smallest projectors made and U can get them on ebay for like 115.

 
Rep Power: 317

Valeos are around 120-140 ish and S2k's are around 220.

Hey turtle are u using the stock oem housing? or do u have aftermarket housings?

 
Rep Power: 304

d2s valeos are more rare than the h7 valeos. at least thats what i've seen. h7 valeos need an adapter to hold the d2s bulb. i might do another retrofit and put my setup for sale. but not sure yet. i'm planning on doing d2s valeo or tsx projectors

stock

GOD DAMN...Impulse told me the TSX projectors won't fit in the stock oem 05 ex housing. But others tell me they will. Now i'm soo confused....

 
Rep Power: 317

tsx are kinda big...i would try using valeos

 
Rep Power: 0

Are there different types of valeos? am I looking for a specific one?

 
Rep Power: 434

valeo is usually the same, unless you're asking about high beam/low beam differences. there is H7 or D2S, DOT or ECE valeo low beam projectors. then there are the D2S DOT valeo bi-xenon projectors. i have valeos in my car atm, but i'm switching to ZKW bi-xenons (off of a newer 3 series).

 
Rep Power: 317

just go with H7 Valeo halogen projectors. They work really well with hid d2s bulbs using H7 adapters. Thats wat i have on my car right now. Alot of people go with that set up. You might consider goin DOT instead of ECE due to the high flare. Well its up to u.

Where did u get yours?

Heres a pic of my current problem. This is the driver side area behind the low beam connector.

Right behind the damn connector is the windshield wiper resuvior. Theres only once inch between the connector and the plastic tube. I really dunno how I'll fit anything between that.

buy mine. H7 DOT valeo with fresnel lense. $130 shipped and they're yours.

in regards to the issue on space, that's why it's so fun to undertake such a fun project! when you're putting projectors into a headlight, it's not the same as putting a bulb into a headlight. you have to open the headlight and drill **** so that the projector will fit. if you do it correctly, you won't have any problems.

lol correctly...why does that word seem to haunt me....

Hey infinite can i get some pics on how bright, and the cutoff and patterm Thanks!? Those are going to fit in my oem housing right? All I want is something that will fit the oem housing and be bright and have a pretty nice cutoff.

click the link in my sig for retro completed. those are the projectors (just imagine fresnel lense on them instead of clear). they will more than likely fit your housings, but it won't be direct plug and play. output is:
