Word, well they look good, you think you could put hid kit on the fogs without melting the housings?

I might be retarded, but did you take the hi beam out all together? and put a city light type deal in the housing? It looks like you have your hi beams on in the first pic... Or do you still have a hi beam, and the city light just comes on when the normal hid's are on?

STFU steven. no one cares for your opinion. =p ill change my avy now


phroszto: i used the 9005 high beam housing, took out the original bulb and replaced it with a 74/194 bulb (door light bulb). if you want to do this, first remove the original bulb, then get your 74/194 bulb and extend the metal wire at tip of the bulb, so that it can come in contact with the metal part of the bulb housing, then you need to solder it together. im not too fancy with electrical as you can tell from all my questions in the forum, but this is simple and its easy to troubleshoot and figure your way around it. i turn those on my turning my highbeams on. (watch now everyone will flame me for taking out my high beams....hahaha f*cking nerds)

ryan: ill meet you tommorow or tuesday, see you then man!

I've already done the accord mod, but the civic kit looks good too. Super clean!

Now that the summer is almost over (at least here in Indiana) how is the glue holding up? I think ill like to try this mod but im worried that the glue will lose its power over time with the heat of summer.

Yep, just get the bulbs that say "Xenon" or whatever it is, shouldn't be more than 20 bucks or so.
