Has anyone done a H.I.D. conversion into 94-97 integra headlights? Is it possible? Is the outcome worth the money?

I recommend OEM HID projectors retrofitted into the Integra headlights, and also a 98+ conversion. HID in the stock projectors is a good upgrade, but it's still not as good as it could be. It's very bright about 10 ft. in front of the car and falls off more quickly than with OEM HID projectors.

Also w/ the deep recesses on the 94-97 front end, some light is reflected up above the light's cutoff line, making for more glare than would be with the 98+ front end.

Do you think adding HID's to a jdm frontend (non-HID version) will look decent or better than a stock 94-97?

HIDs in on an integra, any g3, is a solid upgrade. Compare your light output from stock Halogen to HID and its a world of difference. I have 6000k and it's better than OEM, 4100k out give even more light.

Audi projectors fitted into teggy headlights is awsome. I may consider this upgrade and sell my current HID kit.

yes, me
yes, absolutely possible
worth depends on what you value.

The light spread is apparent and it does cover more road ahead than halogens.
If you find a kit at a good price, it may be considered a deal... but if you get a bad kit and are forced throught the hassles of dealing with a retailer, shipping, rma etc... it may not be worth it.

Kits are straightforward and would take less than 2 hours to install.

I installed mine the day i was leaving for a road trip. (due to a late ebay shipper... oh well) I have to say the lights were so helpful on the trip down I95. When youre driving 18 hours straight, the extra light on those interstates helps keep ya focused.

If you retrofit an OEM kit with projector lenses, you will get better results. Do the research and you'll khave all of your answers. g/l
