Okie... I just installed 8000K HID's for my 98prelude... I ordered the H1 Bulb size.. they seem to be way longer then the stock bulbs...??

No matter how much i wiggle arund with the bulbs... it seems to be aiming WAY to high..

help~~~~~~~~~~

 

Aim your headlights themselves downward....There are 2 adjusters on each headlight

 

Reflector housings like the preludes etc, the cut offline will be poor and there will be stray light going all over the place which can glare oncoming traffic. HIDs for reflector housings isnt recommended IMO.

 

Yea I had the same exact problem with my 98 prelude, had to angle it all the way down with the adjusters. Its still pretty bright but not as much.

 

The best way to fix this problem is to put Projectors into your headlight housing

 

does anyone have a write-up on how to install those projectors into the 5th gen headlights? Also, which would be the best fit as far as the projectors are concerned.

 

Do a real retrofit. I saw a writeup for 5th gens on either preludeonline.com or hpoa.org

so the best fit would be the BMW E55 projector??? it loooked like it fit pretty damn snug in there.

 

you could also get a casper shield and block off the underneath of the HID bulb ... search on HID forums, they have usefull information there.
