So I picked up a 06 Civic LX and decided to take out the HID'z in the Type R since it will prob never be taken out at night and since the 06 civic is a 9006 bulb. I can't remember if i needed to change the fuses when installing this kit. Any ideas as to what fuse I changed on the Teg and if i need to change the fuse in the New Civic.

Thanks







Civic Type R

 

Sweet. Nice pickup.

 

I remember it was a 10w to a 15w fuse but I can remember which one. I'll see if I still have the directions at home.

 

Stock fuses are 10 and you'll need to change it to a 15.

 

ITR rims look small on the civic. lots lots of gaps around tire

 

 

oh what? itr rims on civic? that's nice. never seen it before either haha

i have visual Dynamic HID for my ITR. i think you did have to change the fuse but i cant remember what # it was.

oh i was gonna run down to my car to check it for you but haha but i dont have my R here

 

Sadly if you left those ITR wheels on the Civic long enough, they would get stolen.

When I had a plug and play HID kit in the past, I put in a 20w fuse in place of the 10w fuse. Nothing ever blew up.

the civic is my DD so its stayin with the hub caps! For that very same reason..all though she is screamin for some RSX or TSX wheels

 

i too used a 20w just as Reid did.

 

Nice choice for DD How're the repairs to the R going? Did CSI come back with anything?

waiting for parts to come in from the dealer...Thankfully my friend works at acura so i got a great discount on new ignition...and the other things that got wrecked....
Sux though i need to trailer my car to the dealer for re-programing

CSI and Police did not call me so i'm not sure what is going on...... I did find another ECU in my car the thiefs left behind..i dropped it off to the police....hopefully they nail these guys.

 

Trevor from visual dynamics recommended going with a 20a fuse since the HID box is rated at 20 amps.

 

5 years and still on my stock fuse. Phillips ballests.

 

I used a 20a fuse when I had my Visual Dynamics HID kit. The guy I sold it to, I also installed the 20a fuse and it's still going strong.

 

Thanks Guys!

 

loving the rims!
