even if he has the JDM front end, the HID units wont fit unless he takes out his ABS. the unit is too big behind the headlight, which is why 98+ integras have a smaller ABS box..

and from what i hear, its not just a plug n play job.. you gotta rerun the lines n ****.. you can just relocate the ballast though.. and still have OEM HID headlights.. its worth it IMO.. ive had HID on my GSR for 3 years now, and i dont like the output too much.. i like the OEM HID beams..
