I want to know from 94+ USDM Integra owners, with the stock projector lights. What is the best low beam bulb you have found, PIAA, HID, Aftermarket high output? I just removed the PIAA's I had and fit high beam bulbs, 65 watts, into the low beam sockets. It produces more light but seems more scattered. For the people running HID's is it worth it and what kind do you have.

Definately worth it, makes night time driving seem more insightull
Just like everyone else says, its a night and day difference, Oh yeah I have the philips kit.

 

You can't beat HIDs. I have Philip's ballast and bulbs. 4300K version and it makes driving at night way more enjoyable. You can't compare aftermarket bulbs to these things. They are simply amazing and nothing short compared to the BMW, Lexus, Mercedes, etc etc. If you want to go for more looks then get the 6000K philip's kit.

 

Not looking for "looks" , I want to be able to see at night. What kind of prices should I expect to pay?

You get what you pay for. It seems like you can get a 4300K kit for $400-450 these days.

 

Maybe even less, I've seen the 6000k kit go for $470 at the groupbuycenter, so just look around. There was also an H-T.com member trying to sell his 4300k kit because he had bought a 6000k kit, so ask around on the classifieds section.

 

i really like the koito.....relatively cheap...and pretty crisp white light...good canyon carving light...

 

Koito...I used to have them but it burned out after a year.

 

best vision for the buck mod... 9005 stock replacement bulbs. For what? 10-15 dollars you can have complete vision at night. or if you want looks with slightly less vision, spring for some cheapy aftermarket 9005's. The yellowish light of stock lights allow a lot greater vision than the bluish, purpleish, or white lights. Someone on here has a link for it, i dunno who... but if you cant find it... basically get high beam bulbs (9005) and modify it to fit the low beam slots. This requires cutting out the rails on the inside plug area and cutting one of the tabs... you should understand if you look at it.

I have already tried that as stated above^

But for those who can't afford the HID kit right now, you can try the PIAA Extreme Hyper Whites. They're pretty bright compared to stock and they don't have a bluish tint to the bulbs. I got a set for $70 bucks. They're a placeholder until I get the HIDs.

 

I find the stock aim of the headlights too low. They are easy to adjust. I turned mine waaaaay up (past the '+' mark) and see very well with just PIAA superwhites. I would try that first before getting the HIDs.

 

Ok, wuts the deal on all these Phillips "group buys" that keep popping up here and dissapearing. I'm about ready to shell out the bones for a 4.3k Phillips kit. I don't remember who, but there were at least two members were involved in organizing one recently. Supposedly. Anyone have some info?
