I have switched to the PIAA 19173 a week ago. I love the way it looks now. I will try and take pics sometime and post them up. I just wish I could use a higher watt bulb.

There's not much light output anyway .. the bottom roadlamps are almost purely for looks.

I like the clean look like one color for the whole car. White paint and no other colors on it and blue HID'S and no other mixes and matches...
The yellows remind me of those old 1980's mercedes benzes...

wow that looks really awesome on your car...i dunnoes if it would look that good on a CL. it would for sure have to be blk housing like yours is. your whole car looks awesome. i think thats the cleanest white accord i have ever seen! 6mt v6?

edit just saw in your sig that its a v6...is it 6spd or auto?

hey thanks for the compliments....im sorry for hijacking ur thread man...

but here is a pic of just the headlight...



(yes its a V6...did a single conversion....sad to say...its an auto....back then when i got the car the markup on the 6sp was abobut 32k!)

for more pics of my car just go to my cardomain.... www.cardomain.com/id/accord03

but yeah i had that...white with black housed...with no reflector...and i thought it was too plain...so i redid another pair of oem lights and did it this way. i tink it adds more flavor.

again sorry for hijacking the thread!
