Default 7th Gen Accord H.I.D.

Hi, new to the forum and just wondering what are good H.I.D projector housing kits for a 2004 or 2005 accord v4 coupe.

Any suggestions from owners of H.I.D's already?

why dont you first use the search feature, im sure ive been on 22 threads that have similar topics and links provided within them to help clarify nearly all HID questions. I am at the moment getting together with a few people for a groupbuy for HID's. I am probably gonna be getting the sets for 295 a piece. So if you are in the market for a set KIT.

Well, I still want to get projector housing first because I don't think the stock accord comes with it right?

How are these?

those are not high quality projector, those cheap headlight cut off at least 10-20% of your headlight output by distorting the beam pattern.

if you want a REAL projector, look for a set off RL, MDX, S2000

then you'll have to retrofit the oem projector lens to your stock headlight housing.

it's not easy but with some time and effort, it can be done.

SEARCH and do your share of reading, post back if you need more help.

just for your infomation, i have hella 9006 hid on my stock headlight.
if you think you will get it retrofitted in the near future, some projector might require different set(h4, 9006,etc) than the one you have now.

Those aren't HID... those use LEDs.

Those are LED projectors which I could turn into HID projectors later on. The thing is, I want to buy projector headlights which I can turn into HID's later on. I don't really want to go through the hassle of retroing, so I was wondering where I could buy quality projector headlights for Accords.
