Default JDM DC5 OEM HID question....

I was wondering how much does these usually go for? Where can they be found? Also, i am assuming is pretty much striaght plug and play.....if not, what should i look for? Will the output beam pattern be better than the stock housing with a HID kit in it?

Thanks

The JDM headlight is pretty straightforward the only thing that is different if the connected for the low beam headlights.

INstallation is pretty straight forward. If you want genuine HIDs you can order 2002 NSX HID bulb ,ballast...etc. they will fit to the JDM HID housing. NSX uses the same ballast as DC-5.

Thanks for the responses! But how much does a set of HID with bulbs/ballasts costs?

But what about the HID Reflector compared to the Halogen reflector?

would the pattern (reflector) be different with the jdm headlights, will it blind some on coming traffic?

It is different. It won't blind them but the light will be shining on their side.
