Re: 01 civic retrofit

My Morimoto Mini's just came in this morning

What i did was get the $120 kit which includes just the projectors and shroud, then i bought a DDM tuning kit for like $50, u don't need their HID kit.

So there u go $170 for a retro.

Re: 01 civic retrofit

Didn't TRS have a thing where they voided the warranty if you used DDM stuff though? I vaguely remember seeing something like that..

Re: 01 civic retrofit

Obviously the morimoto's would be a bit better. But for the price difference it's not worth it. Either way i bought a 6000k 35w Hid kit. Whether it's from TRS or DDM Tuning i don't care, don't quote me on this but if their is a difference i don't think it would be that big :P

I thought you also needed to use good quality bulbs to avoid voiding the warranty?
