I believe stock low beams are 9006 and the highs are 9005

As far as modifications goes, i would imagine its just plug and play, check out this guy here --> https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1847971 i bought two kits from him with NO problems what so ever and you cant beat the price.

Just a word of advice: Aftermarket HID kits are NOT street legal UNLESS there is some dimmer or shield to prevent them from blinding oncoming traffic. I got headlights that are just as bright as HIDs, but are designed so you cannot see the beam...All you see is the light reflecting off objects. The Sylvania SilverStar Ultras...The brightest street-legal headlights on the market, maximum visible range: 2,000 feet, color temperature 4800K, 55W power draw for low beams or 65W power draw for high-beams, halogen. It lights up road signs similar to how mercury vapor lamps or high-power spotlights would. At 1,000 feet, all reflective surfaces can be seen plain as day and they reflect as bright as day, yet at the same time, all oncoming traffic sees is the light bouncing off the metal reflectors at the back of the headlight casing...Not very bright at all from their point of view, but as bright as HIDs from my point of view. I have had these in my car for 2 years now, and they're still going, despite me touching the glass part of the bulb with my bare fingers. Oh, and just for kicks: 4800K or higher is daylight spectrum.

I can beat that price...How about $50 for a pair of 4800K halogens that are street legal?

Why does it say on the site that they use the original bulbs? does that mean they are wrong since the bulb size is h1?

How come the lights are so cheap from that site? I seen other sites and they usually range in the $280 range.


Here are some examples....

Pm'd but for everyone else, they come with all the bulbs that it needs already installed into the headlamp.

Because when you order them, they than oreder them from TYC, they are only making around $20-$30 on this sale, but they figure that thats $20-$30 that they wouldnt be making otherwise. All i can tell you is i bought these from them at that samr price and had them on my car for about 7 months (there still on there but my car is for sale) So you can buy the same product from either store, the only difference is $100..
