IF anyone has them can you tell me if they illuminate better than the stock or projector ones.

 

i dont have them but i heard they DO NOT shine any better. They were made for rhd vehicles. Unless you do a HID retro fit.

Nope, same same. But they look a hell of a lot better

 

I do not know why everybody trips over the rhd thing ... You can adjust the glare outta them with the bottle cap adjustment points on em and they are a lot brighter than stock plus they look a whole lot better they adda touch of class to the prelude

 

actually, i have the jdm one pieces in my prelude. There's a flare on the road at night where the right light shines. It's not too bad, but the beam pattern isnt as good as the USDM versions, obviously. Get them and do a HID retrofit, halogen sucks anyway.

 

Roughly the same as stock, 1 million times better than projectors....unless they're custom HIDs or something...

 

I was thinking about getting them too. You guys say HID retrofit...exactly what kind of money are we talking for that?

When I was talking about projectors, I wasn't referring to that **** you buy on ebay for $10 after you've saved up your lunch money by eating only skittles for a month. I was talking about Audi/Lexus/BMW projector housings inside JDM 1 pieces, with good (not knockoff ****) ballasts/bulbs.

You'll need to buy the projectors, which you can find on ebay for like $150. Then, use the search button to find the thread where the dude's selling HID kits. Get the right one, wait for all your **** to come in, then use the search button AGAIN to find the DIY for making HID 1 pieces. All in all, it'll cost around ~$500, not including the 1 piece headlights.

 

woooooooooow. That's almost 700 dollars.

It's worth it though I've seen a few Ludes around with it.

 

Just find projectors, and the whole hid setup on ebay for around 300 thats what i did and i love them.

 

Thak you guys... Is that it is true the JDM ones look so much better so I am gonna get them.

 

they are available in black and chrome housing?

I paid $355 for my full BMW E46 Bi-Xenon kit on ebay. good deals will come around, just wait for it.

BTW: I love my HID retrofitted 1-pieces

There's a black housing version, and a chrome housing version. The black one is cheaper, and i think it's the stock one. I don't know where the chrome one came from, but I see them all over the place.

Yes, there are both versions. The black housings are stock "JDM" and personally, I like the black housings a lot better. If you want chrome housings, stick with your usdm ones.

What did it bring... do you need to buy anything else?

 

black ones ARE NOT cheaper? what are you talking bout.. the clears are.. everyone are in favor of the black..

 

yeah I second that you can defiantly pick up a pair of the chrome ones on ebay for cheaper. The black ones are so much better looking Ill be putting mine on my car this weekend.

I have a pair of hids Ive been running in my usdm lights that look amazing. I have always liked the way an hid looks without the projector. I had to custom fit the hids with an h4 base for them to fit in the jdm.

 

^^ hey man be sure to keep us updated with the HIDs.. do you mind telling me what kind you are purchasing.. i also want to get HIDs but don't want to do the retro projector fitted... it takes away the essence of a once piece JDM in my opinion.. but also looks good... and i don't want to blind on coming cars too.. so i guess i'm *** out!

 

NeriVTEC:

I got all the parts necessary for the retrofit: projectors, bulbs, ballasts, ignitors, and shrouds. The seller was asking around $400 for buy it now, but I sent him a PM and told him I would pay him $340 right now on the spot. great deal
