What is up with everyone and xxxW threads these days. 100W HIDs sound crazy. Be the first and try it.

Ok... Does anyone else see the inherent danger in these? YOU might be able to see the road better but drivers coming toward you won't. And since they won't, they also won't know exactly where you are since they'll be inundated with an unnecessarily bright ass light. And then shortly after, you'll wind up with a car in your grill. Good luck with those. Try not to kill anyone.

I don't think any one here is a ricer, that's why no one here has put 100W 12000k HIDs into their TSXs yet. The sad part is I had to put "yet"...

I think you would have to worry about heat issues. I'm not sure of the threshold. Were you thinking headlights or fogs??

i live up north where the farther you can see the safer you are from wildlife making their way onto the highway.

I am not going to use these lights on normal city roads

I probably wont get them at all because they are too hot

If Acura used Bi-Xenon HID's then high beams would be fine. Our high beams are OK but really should throw more light down the road.

The Acura HID's are still pretty good.

the tsx has some of the best hids from the factory (I've driven audis, bmws, and benzes). Unless you want to change the color, I wouldn't want to play with higher wattages. They run hotter (and can melt housings on really hot summer days -- I've done this btw) and cause more harm for uncoming drivers than they do for you. Drive slower if you can't see that well.
