Hey, im really looking into getting Projector headlights for my 2004 Accord Sedan. I was wondering if it was something that I could install myself? would I have to change any wireing? I know I have to take off my front bumper but thats as far as I know. Does someone know a link or somthing that might tell me how to install them? Can a novice like me install then? Any advice would be great. Thanks

do a search...i think there is a DIY on here somewhere about that...if not, it certainly has been covered.

awesome, that was a pretty helpful source for taking the headlight out. Another question, do you think I have to change the wiring for Projector headlights? or do they usually use the same wiring from stock wiring?

well it kinda depends but i do think the protectors that are usually on ebay use different bulbs. im really not sure about thatbecause i dont have them myself. i think a few guys on here do though. if the projector has halos you will have to splice it in somewhere like the parking lights or something.

hey all, i put my projectors in last week and it took me just a couple hours(around 4), that is my friend helped me and the hardest part was figuring out why half the lights on the projectors didnt work(my fuse busted cuz my stock lights didnt have fog lights) and we had to take the bumper off. but everything is on and in working order and so far im perfectly happy with the ebay quality :]

I recently purchased some ANZO Projectors off NOPI, they had a harness my stock bulbs plug into, Can anyone identify the bulb for me? It's bright, but very small.
Don't mean to hijack a forum or anything, but I had to ask.
NVM, I just found out that my projectors serve as a 9005 to H1 conversion.
