I've been wanting to ask this very same question. I've seen many here in H-town.

I've seen about 5 of them in my area..

And a couple Preludes as well..

I know this Prelude owner who has put RL HID bulbs in his car.. bought them for about $1000.

If they are in NY, or NJ, I bet they are stolen.. but in other parts, I'm not so sure. But then of course they could ship these once they steal them..

I guess that that is a why people steal them because you can't tell if they are stolen or not..well at least not just by looking. People do buy them..

My dad and I put them in my Alero, we used the ones that were used in the mid 90s Mercedes. Cause they fit right and weren't strong like the new ones in our cars or the BMW's or Audis, so they didn't burn out the housing or clamps/wires.
The ones on the Acura look much cooler, But If I could somehow get the Fog lamps from the Alero or Grand Prix or Escalade that would look phat. Or like the Acura's which all change color.

The hids are 35 watts and burn a lot cooler than regular bulbs so HIDs wont burn out your alero housings.
