Default Anyone using this HID setup in 7thgens

Looking at getting Phillips D2R bulbs with H4 adapters. Just wondering if anyone had any opinions. Im not really happy with the glare from my H4 Kit.

I did this on my car and had issues with the cut-off. I don't recommend it.

Im going to play with it I guess and see what happens. I bought a d2 adapter for the kit so I can just get the TSX projectors and use a d2s bulb if I dont like it. Oh well, HIDs in civics...

Oh, that's just not fair. It's 10° F here, then with wind chill, it hits about -15° F. I need to move.
