Look on Silvania's lamp replacement guide and it tells you what the OEM Kelvin rating is. I can't remember off hand what it is. I then went on ebay and bought some 9005 with a similar Kelvin rating. They aren't EXACTLY they same, but no one has pointed it out yet.
I would check the connections on your fog lights. If they look good, you probably need a bulb. I replaced mine with Silverstars and it made a HUGE difference over the OEM bulb.

so how you guys fix the warming light ? do you guys just go acura dealer? would they report me for changing HID? and would the problem pop up after fix ? what if i change the computer.. cause i plan to get hondata done.. would it fix the problem?
i think you might just want to stop modding the car before you really mess it up. you must of did something really bad for a light to come up for the high beams. and to tell you the truth, this really isnt something that can be helped over the internet.
acura does not report you for changing out a headlight. and your ecu has nothing to do with your light being on.

well the HID that i install got no problem.. it end up the relay wasnt broke.. cause the next day i drove it.. it was turn out fine.. but the car still tell me something wrong.. i brought it to the mechanic.. and he say the computer doesnt see to connect that light was fine.. so the warming someone still there.. dont know if i sould bring it to acura dealer.. and see if they can fix without telling me to go back to stock bult to fix it..
and im not really gonna mod this rdx that much.. the last thing would be hondata which i hear alot of ppl saying its worth it so i might get that done.. other then that im preety much like the way it is..

I would bust out a wiring diagram of the stock headlight harness, a multimeter, and go to town; were this my vehicle.
If you have the technical/mechanical know how to do so that is what I recommend. Otherwise, windowlickinggood's advice is what you should take. Obviously something in the aftermarket wiring you added is not compatible/correctly installed to where the computer doesnt see an issue. Its probably a good idea to just take it into Acura so they can troubleshoot it. Normally dealerships only charge 70-100 for a diagnosis if they charge at all. That is a small price to pay when the alternative is burning up your wiring harness or some other catastrophic electronic failure.

damm another extra dollar to take to acura eh?... i think im just gonna save that extra for the hondata..or i would find the elec chip that connect to the light and take it out.. cause the warning is pointless .. even eye can tell if its working or not..
the only reason why DRL check was on is because theere is 2 stock wire that sould normally connected not its only 1 wire connect to HID and the only is not ... so i need bring to dealer to see if there by anychance to fix the only wire thats not plug in to cause the DRL to light on..
Sorry windowlickingood its not that i dont care about this car.. it just sometime there are things that i really dont get why they had that warning on..i guess alot of ppl are eye blind .. thats why they had to add DRL warning system

And to the op. You only need to pull a fuse for the drl since the high beam and drl is the same bulb. But if you already chopped up wires then pay the money to have it done right
