im looking to do a HID kit in my hatch, just wanted to se who has then in 88-91's and what kit did you get , how do you like it, what color do they come out, and last are they worth it in your opinion
thanks

 

I just sent in a $375 money order 2 days ago to some guy in new york who's sellin 8000K hid's by Hanabi on ebay...

I've also got black projectors, so i will definitely take pics! My ***** gonna look sick yo

 

i dont think i want 8000k to much color you loose vision. im gonna go with either 4300k or 5800k not sure, i just want to se who has what kit in the 88-91's and how they come out vision and color wise, maybe even some pics???

 

i have HID bulbs if that's what you're talking about.....
Catz "Galaxy White" 130W HB# 12V
i use them in my highbeams and they're really bright....
the colour comes out as kindof a pinky white but it's brighter than anybulb i've seen, i'm not really concerned with them being that colour either cause noone will see them when i'm driving

 

good choice on the headlights 4300k is the best.

 

what about the new phillips 6000k's? they are actually a 5800k, i did a search for "HID" and it was under there they are call uni-something i can remember

 

philips 4300K - 3200 lumens
philips Ultinon 6000K - 2400 lumens

6000K =

 

so 4300k is the way to go eh?

 

phillips is the way to go
if you don't got projectors hids are a waste because hids on stock housings look like wanna be hid bulbs
it doesn't stand out too much

 

i dont care what they look like i want to be able to se the damn road at night

 

Here is a link with a few pictures of the Phillips HID's installed in a CRX...not my car...not my site.

The kit you see pictured was ordered from "Phoenix Micro-Lite". Good luck finding their website. I tried and tried and kept ending up with dead links. If you happen to come upon their website shoot me an e-mail!!

phoenix microlite is now called Pacific Microlite (310) 364-5219

i bought my HID from them 3 years ago.. and they will be the only company getting my business..

 

are not real HID

 

i have the phillips kit on my 90 hatch...looks better on the hatch , everything is brighter, i had them on my type r, but i couldnt see anything with them!

i like them on the hatch!

 

if you want light than look then 4300k is the way to go

 

i had them on my "R" 2000 integra they wornt worth ****.
i couldnt see anything.
i aimed them all the time...high low to the sides and couldnt get them to look right, so i put them on my hatch and the look good and if your up close the do look like fake bulbs(a bit brighter), but driving or seeing the car come at you THEY LOOK like HID's.....Just my 2cents...i tried them on my cars!

 

i also have 4300k on my car...i like them a lot

 

you must not have had a 9006 retrofit kit.. because i had HID on my integra for 3 years, and i swear by it..

i didnt even have OEM integra headlights.. they were some aftermarket TYC headlights that body shops buy when they wanna cash in on you and buy $100 aftermarket housings instead of the $350 OEM housings..

here is my integra beams with halogen..


and here is my 4300K philips 9006 kit.

 

Maybe you just got the wrong bulb? ::shrugs::


<u>There are 2 types of HID bulbs, D2S and D2R.</u>

The D2R is for a reflector type housing.
The D2S is for a projector type housing.

Are you sure you had the correct bulb for your application?

 

im sure you right! i will try to get a hold of some other bulbs just to make sure, or just buy another kit cuz, i have the phillips kit on my civic now, and they are bright *** hell!

 

i was lookin into buying "yellow" lights. not the white/blue/pink etc highbeam lights... but those yellow ones like on the jdm itr. ya'll kno what im talkin about?
i just dont know where to find em...

ever watch 24 hours Le Mans? almost everyone of those GT1 cars have these bright *** yellow lights and it looks nice

 

i finally got mine in the mail today! I installed them and lemme tell you they look badASS! i can't wait until tonight to see how bright they really are! in the day i can tell i have really bright headlights from the reflection on peoples' rear bumpers/hatchs etc. when i get outta the car and stand a few yards away, nothing from the projector lens appears yellow... ALL WHITE and since i got the 8000K kit, you can totally see a purple tint to it... niiiice... they look so cool when they warm up!

i will post pics of before and after the conversion when i get the chance!

i wonder how long these hanabi's r gonna last me...

 

I think I'm going to get me a set of HID's soon too...but I have 1 worry, I get condensation inside my headlights, I don't think it'll pop a bulb...b/c it hasn't yet, but is there a way to take apart the headlights and clean the inside? Mine seem to have a tint of yellowish in them. If not I'll just install the kit and let it shine, b/c I can't see a ******* thing in the road until it's 3 feet away.

 

use the oven method, buff them with a nice cleaner put them back on, aim them correctly.. HID will not make condensation.. they go in just like your stock bulb if u get a prefitted kit..

 

what's the oven method?

also, i just looked at that link above, maybe mine seem yellow just when the light is on. when you compare the hid to the bulb in that one pic, it looks extremely yellow. If my HID's turned out like that i'd be fine.
