it took me a few hours but it was fun

nice! now... whats up with the headlights? gotta make them match

Black Halo Projector Headlights are comeing soon just need some extra cash get them going im thinking about bakeing the fogs and removeing the reflecter and fog the lens i think it woul look nice

The car in your garage is all green. This one appears to be partly green ( I see green fenders ). I want to see more pics of it if this is intentional!

nice but u should of waited to do everything at once top and bottom ...

Very nice man. What color are those? I'm keeping my eye out for some reputable 4300k for an exact match of the stock Xenon headlights.

Looks nice... You may want to do the fog light re-wire...... to come on with your parking lights.

got a link?

thanks man my fogs are 6000k im gonna put 10000k on the top

Ouch dude... that sucks.
And on a side note, I dont suggest taking out the reflctor because thats what the actual bulb sits in.

Please do some reading on hidplanet.com

You're not putting any useful light on the road with those HIDs.

they look pretty useful to me better then what i had

I agree, just get some PIAA extreme bulbs... or laminex it. I HAD hid's in my fogs and switched that out for some PIAA extreme white bulbs, with lexus capsules. It's a much better look and no light puking. Waiting on a set of projectors and an 00-01 clear lenses.

Plus HID's bought from cheapo Ebay sellers NEVER last very long at all.

Also on another side note... Save your money on that black halo projector junk and put a projector in your stock housings... much more effective and an A$$ load more light on the road then that garbage. I do retro's on the side, and would more than likely be about the same amount, and much better then ebay halo headlights.

i went to DERAND MOTORSPORT i dont think they are from ebay im not sure where they get it tho :confused:

Over priced at Derand... best place in Ottawa is either Jamie out at OttawaHID, or buy them off of theretrofitsource.com. Jamie gives out a year warranty but better quality stuff. TRS has an UN-beatable 5 year warranty and their products are absolutley amazing.

Now take a Pic by the car, so you show us where the light is hitting.....:D

10K for headlights is a no-no... This isn't a Honda forum. ;)

6K max... Even that is too high, 5K is just perfect

isn't 5K more white and the 4300K starting in the yellowish range?

:laugh:

Found quite an accurate chart to gauge the color range of HID's...


Attachment 43636

6000K is whitish blue, 5000K is more of a pure white, 4300K is stock HID color, such as a Phillips D2S bulb, 3700K is stock halogen, 3000K is yellow.

You have to also think of the lumen ratings as well because 4300K is the most, and it just goes down hill from either way on the spectrum

That makes sense. So then 4300K puts out the most usable light to the human eye then?

From looking at several pics online, I do like the pure white of the 5K. It looks like it has more usable light than 4300K, but then again they're just photos.

Lumens is the international rating of how "bright" something is. its technically a candle power rating. for a quick comparison of HID bulbs, a 4300K bulb is somewhere between 3000-3100lmn give or take. A 5000K bulb is 2900-3000 lmn. A 6000K bulb is between 2800-2900, and anything after that decreases like a bombshell. There are a couple newer bulbs on the market that DO produce more lumens at their given ratings such as the new Osram 66240 D2S SVS which is also THE most expensive bulb on the market but well worth the money. Also in Comparison a stock Halogen bulb produces a measly 1800-2000 lmn... THIS IS NOT SAYING STICK AN HID BULB IN YOUR HALOGEN REFLECTORS BOWLS... this is just giving ratings of said bulbs.

And OP my honest suggestion would be to look up and read the posts that MSU2000 has on his entire projector setups. Which allow you to have a MUCH brighter setup, while at the same time NOT blinding ppl.

If you want to know more on the Projector side of things either PM MSU, or come talk to me. I live in Barrhaven and can show you what I mean in exact person.

i just went for my first ride with the hid fog and i think 6000k is good enought for the heahlights

I've seen 55 watt HID's. I do like their light output.

everybody doesnt care to retro their headlights especially when they wont see that money back. chill, sh1t

Lmfao... Look at how much the wall on the house is lit up...

lol

You don't need to see your money back... All you need is another set of headlights when you sell your car, and you still have all of the parts... They ARE universal... And not really all that difficult to install depending on which type of projector you get. A chimp could put and of the Morimoto Mini's in... Takes a little bit more skill to put in anything else.

Where did you get those? Is the housing glass or plastic that will melt?
BTW Clear daylight is about 5300 and is the best for your eyes to see unless you just want a look and don't care about functionality. Then again you give up some lumens for the higher frequency light over getting 4300

It would of made more of a difference if the headlight was HID. You should definitely consider it because it will look and shine better. Every headlight is different especially if you have a projector compared to a regular housing. In projectors it reduces the illumination and blue quite a bit

i go them for 50 buck i just need to put some lights in it coming soon need some cash lol

Good deal... But the width on those projectors is piss poor... Your stock headlights have more width than that.

Best advice here.

I have xtreme white and they are great.
