H.I.D. light's

What is the best H.I.D.'s in the market, which have you guys used? Is the installation process easy? I heard that the philips h.i.d. kit had a somewhat yellowish output compared to other brands, anyone have them on?

Ive heard nothing but good things about the philips kit and they are very easy to install. Upgrade a fuse, unplug you 9006 bulb, plug the 9006 socket into the HID ballast thing, plug the HID bulb into the socket coming off the ballast, put the HID bulb in just like the 9006 (assuming you got the 9006 conversation), and than find a spot to mount the ballast on each side close to the headlight

You may want to check out Vision too. They have a "Crystal White" which look just like the acura HID with a purple tint.

That's the one i'm thinking about too.

I actually heard the Phillips suck ass....but that's just what I heard. My friend was telling me that his Vision ones are much better. I was looking at them in his Integ...and it was brighter than ones on my CL..(projectors = more light)

I have the Philips kit, and I love them. They look just like the ones on Mercedes (probably becuase they use Philips). I am very happy with them though, but its all a matter of preference. Philips is a great company and they make killer products.

The TL on the left has Acura HIDs. The Legend on the right has the Phillips HID kit.

I have the Philips 9006 HID kit. I first used them in my '94 Accord, then my '95 Legend Coupe, and now in the CL. The beam pattern from the CL is nearly perfect. It's the best out of the other cars I put the kit in. The CL's optics is the best for HID conversions out of all my cars. Philips makes great lighting products.

thanks for the feedback, I also heard that the Philips H.I.D. kit kinda produces a yellowish like stock halogen bulb output at certain angles, is this true? or is it a white and blueish output?
