Default HID Conversion Kit [02 Accord]

Hi,

I plan on installing the plug and play HID kits into my 2002 Accord 3.0 V6. Any recommendations?

I know that it is not legal to do so, so what should I go for? I don't know much about HID's and it would be great if somebody could help!

To be more precise, it would be great to know the bulb size, how many bulbs, the power, etc.

Many people will argue that you shouldn't put HIDs into a stock halogen housing unless you do a retrofit, but it's not a big deal. I'm installing my PnP kit tomorrow :P

According to the Sylvannia website your accord low beams are 9006, same as mine. I wouldn't bother getting high beams because they don't seem to be very efficient.
If you get a kit like I did then you don't have to worry about resistors, power, etc. I ordered a Kensun 8000K HID kit from amazon for only $62. Shop around to see what you can find!

What is the difference between 35w and 55w. I mean how does it make a difference?

55 watts use more power and are thus brighter, 35 watts are a little less brighter.. if i were you, I'd stick to 35 watts.. just a suggestion.. Also, I don't know if you've auto headlights on that thing; if you do, you're likely gonna need a relay harness..

As far as what color, unless you wanna spend your time getting pulled over 8000 Kelvin or lesser.. preferably 5000 or 6000 kelvin, nothing lower..
