well im gonna be picking up an HID KIT for my DA, i have jdm headlights on it and i was wondering if i needed to do any mod's to make the kit fit or whatever anyone have an HID KIT ON there DA's with jdm headlights that could help with some INFO thanks.

 

picture's would be nice to see how ur DA's look on HID

 

DA's with JDM 1 pieces look horrible with HID's. The lenses on them scatter the light and just look like 2 deer spotting lights driving down the road. It will also cause lots of negitive attention from cops and other drivers. Your best bet would be to get some new headlights and do a HID retro fit. If you still want them, I know there are a couple sponsers that sell plug and play kits and its REALLY simple to install. You would need a kit for H4H bulbs.

Personally, it looks horribly out of place. The one-piece headlights for the DA has an old school feel to it and adding a projector just ruins that vibe.

 

u mite as well keep the kit. cus h4h hid's are hard too find. good luck

wow 300 for an hid kit? Might as well retrofit. And you won't have to do any "mods" if you're just buying a kit, it's plug and play.

thanks for posting those picture's **** looks hella clean

 

I don't have any pics of when I had mine on but I had the one pieces and was using H4 bulbs in them(12k's).

Here's how to go from H4H's to H4's:

Also here's a pic of a retrofitted DA where they took the time to get rid of the lines also(my favorite DA retrofit pic), if the owner would like me to remove let me know:

thanks for posting some picture's, that retro fit on the da looks pretty sick

 

i'd like hid on my da also. Would they work & look good on usdm headlights?

 

Please get retrofitted ones if you're going to get HIDs. Blinding people is not cool.

as long as you can see

 

The only practical way of running HIDs in those light housings is by retrofitting a full lense setup. Cars that run PnP HIDs without a lense to focus light only blind people...and that's not good

 

I was going to be retrofitting my old one pieces til my car got tottalled, so no whenever I get unlazy enough I will be doing this to my DB instead. Already have an extra set of headlights, just need to pull the rpjectors out of the TSX headlights I have and then pull apart my extra set and swap the projectors. Been more concerned with my motor lately though...
