Headlight bulbs, H4?
Just picked up my civic tonight. Its a 2002 silver EX coupe 5 spd. First thing I'm lookn into is a HID kit. Are the 7th Gen bulbs H4? and does anybody have a/an real HID on their civic.
Thanks,

Rep Power: 393 yes our cars are H4. n yes there are quite a few people here with HIDs in their car. i'm sure you'll be able to find them for about 400-600. even heard there was a 12000 watt(or whatever it goes by) one.

Rep Power: 0 the only problem w/ converting our cars to a true hid system, without changing the entire headlight assembly, is that you will loose the ability to switch between high and low beams.....BUT, due to the nature of how powerful the light emitied from a hid bulb is, there is really no need for a high beam...
if you wanted to get creative, you could install a powerful set of driving lights, and wire them into your high beams, or just see how well the low beam hids work...
peace man, if i can be any help, always feel free to contact me

Rep Power: 0 ya that's a good idea..
i have the PIAA 1100X fogs and they are so damn bright...brighter than my highs...so if you get the HID conversion you should try these out if you find that you need high beams..
goodluck to you

Rep Power: 0 Thansks for the feedback. HID KIT That kit has both high beam & low beam, what you guys think? I'm trying to do as much as I can w/o making the value of the vehicle go down.
