thats what im talkin about, what wrong with projectors? and if there not JDM what about the top fuel civic? it has projectors and its JDM
and projectors own, once again.
they look awesome all around during day, and look better than stock at night, but hey what the hell -- to each his own.

Re: Projector healights... (W.ZeroB18C1T)
My experience is, if it's an aftermarket projector housing that uses an H3 foglight bulb, then the beam pattern and light output will most likely suck or not be as good as stock headlights. The transverse filament in H3 bulbs just does not do well for beam pattern as other bulbs like the 9005/9006 bulbs use in Integra projectors, which have axial filaments. If you want the best light w/ halogen bulbs, either try to retrofit some Integra projector housings into a set of aftermarket projector headlights, or leave 'em stock.

My H3's have good vision though, and I use 55W w/o the restrictor in there and H3 HID's =
then we'll see what's up

agreed, but I've heard that you don't get as bright a light as avertised, I mean projectors should project am I wrong?

when i switched to projectors, i actually love the view they give.
and with high beams as well. let's just day they make a complete 12 hour around at night, making it look like day -- well, not exactly but you get my point
the projectors are very bright and give an awesome view on the road (if you align them right), as well as how the look to other people
plus if any trucks **** me off, i turn on the high beams and blind 'em hehe j/k
projectors are awesome, i just wish they came out with 9006 projectors rather than H3's, but o wells.

Re: Projector healights... (SoPoCivic93)
my friends projectors with HID. before the projectors, the light was out of control. glare central. but now the beam is nice and low, where it should be.

Re: Projector healights... (Vic Nyce)
Those Halo projectors look pretty good on that car IMHO...maybe in the black on black housing thing. How is the beam on them? Better visibility Vic?

Re: Projector healights... (Guardson3r3)
to answer ur questions...
laugHin22CX: yes those are the angel eyes. he got the HIDs from an 02 Maxima.
Guardson3r3: yeah the black housing definitely sets it off. i dont like the chrome housing ones on any color car. the beam pattern is pretty good. i'll get a pic of em at night when i get a chance. like MTK said, HIDs in a halogen housing will never be as good as HID in its proper HID housing. but for what it is, it pretty good.
visibility is not so much improved over the stock headlight housings, but it does reduce the amount of blinding light hitting oncoming drivers.
from a distance it looks great because the beam looks different colors thru a projector depending on what angle ur viewing them at. one second theyre blue, another, theyre white. also, the projector just makes the light look more intense. a la` S2K.
poison: im not sure if theyre H3, my friend just took out the bulbs that came with them and set his bulbs in.
