Icon2 Questions about hids on my prelude

I was wondering if i install a hid kit on my prelude, does the 10000k kit count as the high beams and the low beams? or am i going to have to get two kits for my car on brighter than the other?

10000k ?? .. Is there a purpose to why you chose 10000k ?? .. The HID bulb is not a dual-filament bulb. In order for you to have low + high with one bulb is for you to use them with Bi-Xenon HID projectors. Research before you buy a PnP kit .. they suck. And do not buy a 10000k kit .. your light output onto the ground would be less than a halogen headlight.

A lot of newbs think the higher the K output of an HID bulb the brighter the light. Nothing could be further from the truth. That rating is for COLOR TEMPERATURE not brightness, and the higher the color temp the darker the light output.
