SSMTL04

Hey guys, I was just wondering if its me, or is our HID's not as white as the HID's on TSX's. My friend who has a TSX and I were parked next to each other...and from close up, my HID's looked yellow compared to his? Is that how its suppose to be? From up close my HID's look yellow

i noticed that too... but in actuality, having that yellow slight tinge should make it brighter. it cuts through fog better too

I heard on the TSXClub that it's aimed slightly high, maybe that's why it's seems brighter??

SSMTL04

oh, maybe..cuz i would assume that both the TL and TSX HID's would be similar in color...

Do the TL and TSX use the same bulb?

the tsx and tl should be identical hid hardware but the way in which they are aimed will effect the output that you see. for some strange reason the cutoff for TL is alot sharper than the tsx. the edge around where the cutoff starts/end is where the yellow appears. the tsx cutoff is not as severe and the edge of the cutoff stays the same color.

When I hear HIDs I think blue

SSMTL04

yep, thats what i think too (blue/white). Its okay, because when you see a TL driving up from a distance, you definitely see the blue/white. Its just when its up close, they look yellow. Thats the only thing that bothers me.

yeh...i think all the other car manufacturers are like this too...but the s2000 and beamers look more purple to me

by the way.....what size is our bulbs?

I think the Audi's HID's are aimed too high. Also the RX330 are very, very bright due to the angle that they are installed at
