im about to install blue 8000k HID lights for my eg and wanted to know if other ppl with HIDS are being harass by cops about it being illegal or too bright

 

8000K is only a color. It will actually have less output than 5000K and be blue. I wouldn't go higher than 8000K and you should be fine.

never had an insusse and mine are alinged so badly my lights go right in there window.
but now they are like spot lights with no light on ground at all.
i have 6oook

EDIT- where do you live? all cops are different.

 

maybe you should get that fix before you cause an accident

 

xenonexpert guy, do you not know blue, yellow and red lights are illegal? Wait, what am i saying...you sell "Dot Approved" hid kits [/sarcasm]

 

yeh i have 8000k on my ek....ive had no problems with the police but i live in florida , HID here are street legal and ALOT of ppl have them...if you have projecters make sure the you dont point them UP...too bright

 

Fix them jack ***.

 

already did.
oh and esco562 kiss my ***.
they were fixed the next day.
i had just put new headlight and the pnp klit in the same day and didnt know they come aimed like *** just tested it out my street never acutally drove on main roads.
i dont wanna blind people.

 

No you moron, they are illegal.

 

my boy got pulled over for his 8000K...they made him pop his hood.....and....and....=|

 

lol this whole lighting section is kind of funny because these questions have been asked so many times and people argue about the same thing over and over..example: "retro fit your headlights".."pnp are illegal".."blue is illegal".."i got 30k its soooo brighttt and jdm"

 

there is no legal PNP kit any where in the us,
yours are leagal i call bull sh*t on that.
show me any pnp kit the is dot legal.
the only legal form of hid is to have them in OEM projectors. and those are legal everywhere.

 

No offense....but anything blue just gives more reason for people to hate Hondas.

5000k and 4500k are your best options for visibility and white light.

 

well yea but only thoses ricer blue light like 8oook+
but i dont think there is anything wrong with a 6k
even retro fits have a blue look to them

 

thats the light beint bent through the shield.

 

what??

 

just what he said. that color is because of the intensity, not the actual light assembly.

 

i know that
but thats not even close to what he said

 

I hate your kind.... turn them the eff off! Its not cool blinding other people on the road

 

kiss my ***,
id you read through the damn thread ud see that i already fixed them.
oh and you also see that i never on mian streets with them just down my street.
them i fixed them

 

I have 8000K HID's in my EK Coupe, when I first turn them on they look a little purple but after they warm up a bit, looks like standard HID's.

a friend of mine got pulled over in his Evo cause the cop thought his tint was too dark and headlights were blue. After the cop put the tint meter on the window and it came back clean, he stood in front of the car and said to turn the lights on. As long as the lights look white from the front. Its fine.

The cop was probably too dumb to know that they were factory headlights and was just tryin to **** over another import on frivolous charges...but as long as your lights are white in front..youre good

 

8000K lights do NOT look white from any angle, nor do they put white light on the road. That's what 4300K HID does. Either you have blue lights or your lights aren't 8000K.

 

reading through this thread gives me temporary schizophrenia lol. "hid's are cool", " i hate your kind...," as long as you aim them, theyre awesome on most cars, sweet to drive with, and if you put halos/ "angel eyes", theyre the coolest thing on the road, as long as theyre not in other ppls eyes.

 

angel eyes, cool? wait.. wuuutt.. this is the HONDA forum right?

 

In my area you'll get a lot of head from the 5-0 running a shitty PnP kit.

Especially if it's Blue or Purple.
