Hey guys,

I'm sick of this, I have decided to go HID seeing as how I have spent the same amount on stupid PIAA bulbs already... I have a 99 Civic EX coupe... which HID should I get?

Also, should I change the headlight housing I have... I want it to shine out like a beam....not widespread like the factory housing...

Thanks for the feed back...

How long do HID's last?

Thanks..

Please let me know best price and what type I should get...
Please include bulbs and so on...

I really appreciate the help...

I,ve never had a problem with PIAA bulbs, my wife has a set in her Accord and they've been in there for over 2 years, and I had a set in my '98 EK that I sold, the bulbs have been in there for about 2&1/2 years and still going strong. is it possible the problem may be in your headlight wiring, like 2 wires that may be touching or something?

Thats the other thing... its always one side first... then soon the other side goes too... and sometimes it comes back on...but then it goes off permantly...

At first I thought it might be the harness....but if it was.... replacing the bulb wouldn't fix the problem... So I'm lost...

Come on... I know a lot of you guys have HID's...

most people would say get the Philips 4300 kit from trevor at visualdynamics.ca

Agreed. I have a friend who has purchased several kits for his cars and has never has any bad experiences. I will be picking up a kit in the sprig hopefully.

I would also suggest 4300K.

Super Plasmas suck anyway...not enough useable light. If you want good vision, stick with an FMVSS108 compliant bulb...

same things happened to me with my super plasmas.... I have moved on to the Super Plasma GT's... 8 months and still going strong... Then again, i only drove the car maybe 20 times at night this year...

i thought piaa bulbs have a lifetime warranty on them? so i dont know why you want would have to buy another pair if they blew. if im wrong then jus forget what i said.

4300 k is good. make sure you get a good ballast and bulbs though, hella and philips are pretty good. if you want really blue, get the 7500k, my friend just got a kit.
