Default HID headlight conversion

Hey Guys,

I'm interested in doing a HID headlight conversion in my 2001 Honda Accord LX. I'm pretty new to the DIY car scene and I'm looking for any tips or advice.

First of all, do your research. There are a lot of kits out there.

Here is a thread on this forum talking about some of the issues.

There is also a site in there that makes a HID kit for the 03-05 and they also provide a 98-02 kit.

I would probably install the relay, so it would protect the electrical system on your car.

My TSX has 4300K lights and are extremely bright. The higher number lights give more of a blue color.

The bulbs are expensive, but they should last a long time. My buddies 04 TSX went out after 120K miles/8 years.
