I am going to install an HID kit in the next couple of weeks. I read through the lighting forum and did some searching but most of the results had to do with retrofitting. I am looking for a stand alone kit. I looked at Plasma Garage and found the Philips online. What is really the best deal for the money? Thanks.

 

HIDs in non-HID cars have horrible glare and hot spots most of the time

 

I have a Phillips 4300k 9006 bulb size HID kit for sale $50

 

Phillips manufactures xenon bulbs for a good number of auto manufacturers. Out of the two you listed I'd go with them. Do a retrofit though, you'll thank yourself later.

 

You could do a retrofit, or you could just grab a kit and have these results, as I did. They do just fine, I think (and yes, I have seen plenty of stock HID projector outputs).

I corrected the photos so they appear as they do in real life. People usually overexpose their shots...

 

Neither. Please don't contribute to the problem.

A retrofit isn't that expensive and you won't look like another jackass on the road tossing glare every which way.

 

So for a retrofit is there a link or write up about the process?

 

Stock HID projectors and stock Integra halogen projectors are bright, period. People just need to learn not to stare directly at any light source...instead of whining and going blind, they should keep their eyes on the road ahead of 'em

Edit: But of course, if you have the money and are willing to get it done, do it! I'd die for an s2000 retro. But they blind the hell out of people, too.
