Ok got the same extreme HID kit in 5000 all installed and although its daylight, it appears that after 2 or 3 seconds they match the white led lights perfectly. I'll let you know at night how they look but so far so good.

It wasn't hard to install but the driver side is the harder as its more compact and getting leverage to turn the replacement bulb after installed and lock into place was a bitch! I have moderately large hands but I could only grasp with the tips of my fingers and had to use a pair of needle nose to turn completely into place. I'll get some pictures up later. No relay used at the moment as I was told it isn't needed for this car currently.

Time for some icy hot and a shower. When did I turn 37?

Hello, I'm thinking of doing the same for my 2016 Accord EX-L. Can someone please post the site were they were purchased? I hate the yellow stock headlights, makes the car look hideous compared to other vehicles with LED.

Awesome!! Was it an easy replacement? I found this from Morimoto and I'm a little hesitant about the Ballast "AMP Igniter" install, afraid that it will void my warranty. Any issues with the Honda Warranty?

Yeah it was easy unless you have large hands, it can be a little tricky. I don't know about the warranty. I don't think so but if any problems I suppose you can swap back in the OEM bulbs before going to the dealer for work

Cool, one other question!! The web site has options. What are the 2015+ Mopar and With Canbus? Are they required?

I really don't know, just different types of relays? The particular one I used as did the other member in this thread that recommended to me, said that the relay wasn't required unless you get flickering from the lights which I don't have so I never even hooked up it up. The relay simply is so that the lights get power directly from the battery as opposed to the stock wiring that goes to the headlights.

There are many many videos on how to install them, good luck
