Default Headlight Housing

I was hoping to find out a little more information about this.

i'm interested in doing a couple low-cost mods to start off.

I have a 2001 Stock Prelude SE, MT.

My first couple include the standard Air intake, and I was looking to do a complete interchange into a projection/HID Headlight. i'm wondering if the stock housing can accomodate an HID bulb without compromising lumination of the road, and safety issues, etc etc.

If this isn't clear enough i'll try to elaborate. Also any tips as to where i would be able to find one (online dealers) and so forth that would be great!

If you're planning on putting HIDs into your lights, please have projectors put in as well. Without projectors, your lighting will go everywhere but the street, you'll have hot/glare spots, plus you'll be blinding oncoming traffic. With projectors, your lighting will focus more onto the street like it's suppose to. Here's a thread to give you examples of what a retrofit looks like https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1674161

WEll, i'm more looking for a complete conversion. Projectors, Ballasts, Bulbs, Housing, everything. Basically I take my old housings out and put the new ones in (with the bulbs of course).

Is there such a kit? Or will I have to do some modifications of my own?

Well that's what I'm selling. I have everything you need already put together. (bulbs, ballast, projectors, headlights)

Well, Ok. But there were some problems with the mods right?

which mods? These lights work perfectly fine and they're fully adjustable. I've been doing retrofits for people for about 2 years now
