It's actually illegal in some states to do it. Merely because of the brightness of the hid getting thrown in all different directions. You need to buy the CTR headlights that came with HIDs in japan.

I've seen a retro fit where you remove the actual halogen assembly and affix small projector inside. Still looks pretty stock.

Thats the way I would go if I didn't have the cash to do the CTR ones.

There are many ways to install those hid lights in your si. There was an issue of hondatunning that was out no too long ago with an article on an install in a 92-95 civic. ( march 05). I know that you can take the rubber seal off of an 1991-1993 integra headlight housing, and retro fit them in there. That is how I did mine on my eg. My hid set up was from a g35, so they should be the same. I hope this helps you.

i hope your talking about retrofitting "PROJECTORS" in your car...cause you WILL be pulled over for the glare that you have....but if you dont care they sell H4 housing connectors to put on the bulbs so that they can fit into your original housing...and correct me if im wrong but i dont think the EK9 CTR ever came with HIDs....

Let the master tell you :
-your 350 hid's would have to have 2 ballast,2bulbs,n im hoping its the newer version with ignitors inside the ballast-the new version the ballast is kinda rounded.
-there should be red or white with a black cable coming out of the ballast sometimes theres orange cables but dont worry, there for ignitors.
-those cables coming out of the ballast -the white one goes in the top section of your H4 plug-the other cable goes to the right section of your H4 plug
-remember there should only be 2 cables going in to your H4 original plug 1 for power & 1 for ground which its usually black

THATS it ?

No H4 is your headlight plug...LOOK at the plug it has 3 slots that the bulb goes in ?
-the top slot is for power-your hid plug has to go here it might be white or orange or red
-the right slot is for ground which your hid plug is usually black
i have work with HID's for along time,i which i have pics to show u but i dont-just try it

OHH your 350z hid bulbs wont fit your headlight because the bulb is to skiny-go to ebay and buy your H4 adapter here's a link, enjoy

I have headlights from a 99-00 CTR, only difference i noticed aside from the city lights was that the part that covers the actual headlight bulb isnt there, so you see the full bulb.... I wasn't aware the CTR's came with HID's either.
