Just got projectors for my accord, having problems. - Need Help
I just purchased a set of projectors with halo/angle eyes from ebay for my accord. Heres the problem, I can't get my headlight to go in the space. They came with this oddball HB4 connector, and any standard hb4/9006 bulb wont go in.
Any ideas on what to do with that?
Also, if you can give me a link to an instruction manual on how to safely remove your headlight assemblies that would be good. I found one a few weeks ago but failed to favorite it.
I will post pics here in a second of the problem.

Heres the pics.
The bulb just sits losely in the hole. I guess I could try using my current assemblies and taking them apart to use their bulb connector.
Any info on where to find instructions on how to remove the assemblies?

But if you run a search for projectors on this site, hondasociety and superhonda you will find no one had any luck with projectors.
TYC is the only one that anyone including myself, has had any luck with.

dude, anything other than TYC Projectors have shitty quality. Just looking at those pics prove it. Return those, slap on your stock OEM headlights and call it a day. Besides, i think projectors are ricey if they're not for HIDs.
Stock Bulbs on aftermarket projectors (including the TYCs) = :ghey:
HID on aftermarket projectors (preferably TYC) = :thumbup:
*Note: the TYC Projectors are DOT Approved thus street legal.They include a Certificate of Compliance.
