Can you buy a Bi-Xenon kit yet?? If so where. I bet i sound like a noob with this question. I'd love to have a pair of those new angel eye projectors if i could get this HID kit to go with it.

Yes, you can buy super white lights for your car.( lights that look bluish whitish) anywhere from $20 - $35.00. Make sure you get H-4'S for stock lights, the projectors are H-3'S. You can find them at any performance shop.

Number one is wrong, if your buying those angle eye projectos you will have to get H3 projector bulbs, there small little bulbs that plug in, do not get h4's they wont fit in ur projectors. Oh yeah and h1's for the high beams.

Correct me if i am wrong, but isnt he talking about high intensity discharge here? he wants to make his HID kit fit his angel eye projectors...well if they angel eyes are H3, then you need an H3 HID kit...

If so, then you wouldn't need bi-xenon kits then. Projectors come with spearate low and high beams.

Yes I am. I know Projectors come with separate high and low beams thats why I want a HID kit that will have separate high and low beams that will work in these headlights. I already searched and searched and still didn't find the answer im looking for.

In that case, you would need to buy 2 HID kits, one for each beam. Bi-xenon kits have a high and low beam integrated on the same bulb, much like our H4's but uses I believe a mechanical device and shield to switch between the 2.

I don't even know WTF you are asking about. You're confusing everyone by talking about projectors (which require separate bulbs for high and low beams), and an H4 setup (which require a single bulb that can do both high and low beams.)

- Projectors => Well, two bulbs are required, so you can buy an H3 HID kit, smash it in, and have regular halogen high beams to go with it. Or, be an idiot and get a 2nd HID kit for your high beams as well. (Mind you, you won't be able to 'flash' anyone as it takes awhile to ignite the bulb.)

- Standard H4 civic headlight => You can get the H4 kits that make you lose you hi beams. Or, there is a new kit that you can buy on EBay or some HID kit websites that have a single bulb, but angle the bulb/beam downwards to produce high beams. These kits are aka BI-XENON kits. I've checked the Phillips forums, and some guy has tried the bi-xenon kit that looks like a metal ice cream scooper: garbage light when he hits the high beams..... Light everywhere but where you want it.

I think my question has finally been answered. Really I don't think what I was asking was that complicated. Why do I want a HID setup like this....i don't exactly know right now, but i do. To be different I guess and probably the same reason why I want to spend 700 dollars to get a satelite radio system......i just fukin want to.
