Why would anyone want to put in headlights that illuminate the road for a RHD car? I'm sure I'd love to drive with all the light going to the center of the road and very little to the shoulder, and so will other drivers.

I just put mine in yesterday (with TSX.fury's instructions, thanks! ) and I see 10 times better with them. Just a little bit of a difference in beam pattern but they're not all that much different.

Hey colts, as a side note, what bulbs did you put in the sides? I left the stock whites (dull brown look now next to HID).

And people convert to JDM because people like you hate it so much.

I just left the stock ones in and havent changed them yet cause it seems like it is going ot be really hard to do without taking out the light again.

Really, I don't care about the JDM issue. It's funny to see dumbasses spend hundreds or thousands of dollars for things no one but they notice and may actually hurt performance.

I would, however, be pissed off that some asshole put these in and the backward cutoff throws glare up at me when I drive by.
