Looking to find a good HID kit for my 2009 TSX, I know i need D2S bulbs but do I need anything additional that these sites are advertising. I was thinking of going 8K to get the white with a blue-ish tint.

Somebody please steer me in the right direction

 

if you are just changing temperature you just need bulbs. (D2S)

oem are 4300K 6000K would start the blue tinting IMO.

oh there will be haters in here as well but for me its your ride/

i buy ALL my HIDs from kbcarstuff.com
the have great guarantees
google xenondepot (they use that name on the forums) at a few of the forums and get one of the discount codes/ or wait till black friday....they will have a big sale.

 

i get all my hid needs from www.theretrofitsource.com
Born right here in the USA.
with the Morimoto 5000K bulbs being the best seller at 45 dollars a pair.


Dont fall for the cheap chinese knock off websites, that provide less than adequate bulbs that may or may not die an early death

 

^^^^ i buy from them too if they are the only game in town. but there prices are not always the best.

AND if you think those morimoto are made in the USA guess again.

also do they gaurantee them?

 

^teehee, you assumed I said the bulbs were made here.


agreed that they dont always have the best prices, but my morimoto set has been holding up well!

 

But Morimoto is clearly an American name...

 

Good southern name in fact.

 

Went with the 8Ks

What is the easiest way to the bulbs?

 

With 8000k you won't be able to see anything at night, plus the added risk of being pulled over for having blue headlights.

 

Why are you even replacing your factory HIDs? They are very good. Did they die on you or are you just replacing it so you can get useless blue headlights?

 

Sorry I want my vehicle to be to my liking

Can anyone tell me the easiest way to get to the bulbs?

 

i had 8k, couldnt see shit all when it rained at night. went to 5k = pure daylight at night haha

easiest way is to take out your coolant res.(pull straight up on it) for the passenger side anyways and driver go through wheel well.

 

How do you get the cover off to get to the bulb? Just twist or is there a screw like the older tsx

 

Bump

 

Twist the cover off. Then unlatch the bulb.

 

8000K are illegal and you will draw attention to your self.

 

^^ This. Not only that but you won't be able to see a damn thing.

 

Had the 8K myself for a week. When the road is wet, you don't see your headlights at all. switched to 6k. Perfect.
