I just bought them and installed them last weekend in my ek. I love the ouput compared to stock, there is a bit of glare but not much. I don't know how long they last but the customer support was great. I am noob when it comes to anything electrical and I ran into difficulties during install. They promptly emailed me a bunch of diagrams that helped me fix things. they get a from me

phillips/mchulloc(sp? They are ok, but price is too high. I used both of them before and they not worth the price. TechOne is pretty good due to less glare, pretty good price I got from honda-tech for gourp-buy, and no flicker or any such symptoms so far. Also, they have a one year warranty.

Halogen reflector based HID 'kits' are bad bad bad but no one listens to us anyway, that's why you get ugly *** rice-kits that cost 200 bucks a pop...

I know that retrofit are a lot brighter and wider due to the fact that are running to projectors, but I get HID due to the fact that I don't care about super clean looking light compare to a juicy motor. If I have like $800 on the side I will not use it on lighting and I will use all the for N/A. Therefore, these techone HID is good enough for visual needs to all without a lot of glare where it will blind others. Sorry, I am not the best camera man.
