I bought a set just like that when I first got my accord, they were SHIT...
water would get inside of them and then the lenses would steam up...
Save your money and stay away from the cheap ones..:D

these are the ones that suck complety monkey ass. they tend to have a shitload of glare. i say save your money. if only you save 5 bucks a day youll have enough for some autopal h4 conversion in a lil over a week! lol but if you really really want the good shit spend the money on hella. i personally have autopals. it only cost me 24.99 plus ship and they are almost the same quality as hella at 90 bucks. then buy some sylverstar h4 online (though they're 39.99 at autozone, you can find them for half the price online). then you will have decent headlight solution.

here (http://stores.ebay.com/Autopal-Lights_200mm-H6054-H4-Lights_W0QQcolZ4QQdirZ1QQfsubZ8QQftidZ2QQtZkm) is the link to where i got my autopals. for the h4 sylverstars youre going to have to look for them yourself cuz i dont remember. lol im going to wait and spend the money for these guys. ive said it time and time again...just save your money and you will get what youre looking for. not some crappy plastic korean made shit.

Well i you want looks buy what ever, but if you want light output and to have it shinning in the right place get the Hella's

HondaBoy
07-02-2006, 10:37 AM
city light is just something to leak water into the housing. lol. its really supposed to work with your parking lights if you have it hooked up.

yes the autopal's and hellas are glass and will last plus u cant get the correct light direction but with plast its indirected so u get a crap light output

yeah dude dont do high gloss...one it will look like ass. and two i dont think they make any rubber paints that are in high gloss. try to get something that will work on flexible surfaces. thought these are fixed you dont want it to be cracking. i always make sure i get paint especifially for rubber trim. have fun!

dalinxz
07-03-2006, 09:41 AM
well how did you guys get the side trims out, i got out the front trim, the two headlight trims, and i know how to get out the tailights area but what about the side markers?

ghettogeddy
07-03-2006, 09:43 AM
i just left them on and taped/papered around them

dalinxz
07-03-2006, 09:50 AM
ooh i guess ill have to try that. So am I missing anything out? what about the window trims? tape also, or was there a way to remove them easily

ghettogeddy
07-03-2006, 09:54 AM
id say tape them but dont forget to get the trim on the rear bumper at the bottom and also the lower parts of the rocker paneles

dalinxz
07-03-2006, 10:24 AM

xenon isn't a brand, it's a gas used in HID lights

thought if you search for Xenon lighting you'll find lots of non HIDs labeled as xenon too.. i think this is just a marketing ploy cause they all use a blue filter to get the "xenon" look using regular bulb filaments

a light isn't HID unless it needs a ballast to start it

crazykamper
07-04-2006, 08:38 PM
i was gonna say, cause even when u go to dealer, they usually label it as Xenon, not HID.... u know???

its all good though, dont wanna pic a fight. lol.

happy 4th!

dalinxz
07-04-2006, 09:43 PM
sorry everybody, im the one who instigated the xeon with the title, im too lazy to change it but ya HID's lol
