I bought my 96 integra and it had the angel eyes on it already. The light that these thing put out is terrible and you cant aim them very well either. I would look for something else if I were you.

With both the angel eyes and the HIDs, you get what you pay for. For the angel eyes, quality parts most likely do not exist.

Read this regarding HID temperature:

I have a set of 4300k hids on my beetle. IMO they are alot better lighting at night than the 8000-12000k ones.

here are the ones I bought:

I know they are cheap, but they work extremely well. The seller on ebay is a good seller as well.

well ive had Prolemun for about 2 years now, and ive hered from alot of people that had them before they had no problems with them ever, so after 2 years of using it everynight it still works like before. so if you can find this brand i can asure u that its worth it.

It's Prolumen, which are HID replacement bulbs. Post a picture of your light pattern on a wall.

IMO - dont get that Ebay PnP HID kit. There is a thing called "retrofitting". It's what i did to my integra, and its great. Cost a bit more, but in the long run, its well worth it. (if you wanna learn about it if your interested, PM me and ill tell you about it)

the halos 'angel eyes' have a problem with seals. So if you would buy them, the best thing to do b4 installing is to bake them in the oven take them apart and reseal them with some gasket stuff.

PnP HID Kit 'Ebay HID' 8,000k bulbs will be alot bluer than this. But that is also known to be "Ricer" and 8,000k has much less usable light over 4,300k bulbs.
