I have HID lights and I think they are great and the housings were designed for them with proper cut off and beam placement _____________________________ Jesus is Salvation White 2002 Acura CL type S. 68K and change Criminals thrive upon the intolerence of society''s understanding.....and political correctness (in reply to BuntinBoy9) Post #: 22

RE: HID Information - 7/23/2008 11:35:43 AM    finch13 Posts: 3110 Joined: 6/7/2007 From: St. Paul, MN Status: online For the record, had the HIDs in for about it month now and have only gotten flashed once. My lights don''t even creep past the rear window from a good distance back on most cars. It''s more about what housing you put them in, I''d say 6th gen housings are fine, but the majority of them will suck for HID. As for relay wiring, that diagram is exactly how I did mine except I used two relay and two inline fuses. _____________________________ -> USE ME TO SEARCH HAF <- 1999 Accord LX F23A1 5MT (in reply to 03Sleeper) Post #: 28
