The OE Integra projectors were never designed to project HID lighting. The glass isn't shaped in a way that would correctly disperse the light, which is why OE Integra projectors tend to have hot spots and uneven cut-offs.

Do yourself a favor and do a retrofit the right way, utilizing true xenon projectors, like those from a TSX, which can be had for dirt cheap these days.

i concur... besides.. integra projectors can't be removed and installed like oem xenon projectors can. it's hard to explain. the projector housing itself is one large peice of metal that also the high beam mounts to. it's basically the projector housing and bracket for high beam
