OK, i saw some projectors on a 2000 civic, (regular halogen bulbs) and there was a cut off line, actually looked pretty good. Can you put a HID conversion into a projector headlight? Howw does it look compared to the regular stock halogen headlight?

 

Yes, you can put the H3 kit in the projectors. The advantage is you get a nice "cutoff" line. The disadvantage is the beam/light pattern is really bad due to the cheap design of the projector housing.

It looks good, but functionality isnt that great.

 

does it look better with the regular halogen housing??

 

As in stock OEM lamps?


Yes, I havent heard any complaints from people who have done the conversion for functionality and looks.

 

really... i hear everyone saying that the light it scattered and goes all over

 

That is the disadvantage of the OEM housing with HID kits. Neither of them were made for HID in the first place anyway.

 

thats correct......but it's gonna be way to expensive to find someone to do a retrofit.... so i dunno if i should do it or wut

 

I dont think you can go wrong with the kits in either case though. They are noticibly brighter and better than stock. They are pretty cheap nowadays too [340-400] considering they were around 5-600 a year or two ago.

 

should i go with an h4 kit, or get one outta like a acura TL and use it that way?

 

I personally would just go for the H4 kit b/c it is already made for the stock housing.


The CL ballasts/kit would be cool, but I think it would take some modifications to the housing to make it work. There is another guy on this board that frequents the Accord forum who makes custom HID lights using Porsche, BMW, or Audi HID lights into the Accord stock housing lamps. I think the CL lights would cost a pretty penny too. But if you have the money and the patience to do the modifications....I'd say go for it
