They're not just bad on only Civic's. It's just the Plug & Play kits suck as far as cut-off goes. There are 2 local kids that have P&P kits, 1 drives a Jetta and another a bug-eye WRX. It's so annoying seeing them at night because the light output is so scattered. It's almost blinding if you're tired enough and your eyes can't stand the light.

Light output is supposedly best at 4300K or whatever. After that, you're sacrificing light output for simply color.

i feel bad for the people that meet you on the road or the people in front of you. Hids with scatter FTL

well 6000k is way better light output than 8000k or 10000k, or 12000k... i can see the road 10X better than my halogens.. and im not about to get projectors cus.. i guess thats not JDM haha, and i dont like it.

Then do a retrofit.

 

[EK|B]

How much did they cost and where did you get them?

There's a site sponsor selling them for like $110 or something like that? And they're all over eBay too.

 

[s_crowley 17]

i got them from a store near by for like 150 cus i know the guy.. and the reaosn i dont do a retro fit is because im not going to spend 500+ dollars because i dont have that kind of money lol.. and they took about 20 minutes to put it.. plug and play

 

[ThaJokaa]

i can get some for 80 wholesale is the s**t

 

[Genuine Rolla]

Not bad...I'm glad that you went with 6000K. If you get the chance you should look into doing a retro.

 

[mylovehx]

i want to do a retro but i dont have the patients

 

[gearbox]

you just gotta space it out over time. buy some spare headlamps from ebay that you can work on so your car isnt affected. i technically "started" my retro last year and i havent even cut open the headlamp housings yet lol. its long term

Looks good man.. I helped out my cousin install her 8000k HID's from MobileHID on her new XB. Turned out pretty well, and they look damn sexy.
