I've seen them mounted on the abs unit (but I don't have abs) and the spot where I currently have an alarm horn. I was just worried that these are areas that I have seen water splash onto after washing my car or after raining. Does anyone have alternative mounting locations and has there been problems with water making contact with the ballasts? TIA

 

My ballasts are sealed. So you can just mount them any place they won't be in direct contact with the elements.

 

What kind of HID Kit who have? What brand?

 

Here's how I mounted mine in my car...

If you have any more questions, jusk ask.

 

I actually have an off brand HID. Looks good and lights up everything.

 

i just threw it in there..

 

mounted on the inner side of the fender.

 

you have HID martie?

 

yes sir

 

on the crx?

 

yes

 

pics?

 

developing today.. scan tonight.. hosting tomorrow..

 

beautiful. heres mine

 

Phillips? 4000K or 6000K ?

 

old skool philips 4300K... 6000K kits are wack.. the ground shines all purple and it looks fake.. 4300 is the way to go.. HID isnt made to look cool ya know..

 

i dont' mount mine..it's @ the buttom of the headlight. OEM BABY!

Jeff-

 

i wish i had OEM HID.. halogen housings with HID bulbs isnt very good..

 

well, if you have jdm front-end (if you have teg that is). the housing of the non hind headlight are identical to hid ones...

Jeff-

 

Yeah.. I hear ya.. Pics will be posted.

 

The optics are not the same, though, for a halogen headlight housing vs HID headlight housing. The optics are what cuases the variances in color among OEM HID on different brands of cars.

 

no they arent.. the HID projector is way smaller, and the optics are different.. halogen bulbs arent ARC lights.. the optics arent designed for HID on the non HID housings.. if you look at the HID ones..the projector is tiny.. like an Audi one..or an S2k..or any car with OEM HID projectors.

hehe..i can't tell the inner housing..but it looks the same from outside tho.

Jeff-

 

even the outter one is different..
HID housing has a smaller projector & the lines dont go through the whole thing.. there is a circle around where the projector shines..
NON HID has a big normal sized projector and the lines go all the way through.. i'll post some pics.. so you can tell.

 

maybe i'll go to my warehouse and take out the non hid one and take a picture next to my car? seriously man..they look the same to me (but again..i never really pay super attention to it)
