Thanks alot

Yes, it's legal as long as you have them aimed correctly.

 

Yep and you see a lot better too!!!

 

How do you aim them?, for example I know how to intall the HID ballast and stuff but for the aiming of the bulb If I just remove the stock bulbs and put HID kit without taking off the Headlight assembly and install the new lamps will it be OK?. just like changing the Headlight bulbs to another one.

Just to be sure, "Its Legal no matter what temprature or color you put"

There are like so many of them on Ebay form $50 to $350, any recomendations on which one shoud I buy. I have a 7th Gen Accord Coupe.

 

It's legal as long as you still have usage of your high beams.

For example, if your car has one bulb for both the low & high beams, it would be illegal cause the HID bulb only has one filament.
If you have two separate bulbs (one for low and one for high) then it'll be ok.

 

they ahve no way of telling that u dont have a high beam....they arent gonna pull u over and say "turn on ur high beams" and also they have dual filament hids....

 

Legal, psh, as long as you aren't blinding people who cares.

 

depending on what gen accord you have, you can aim the bulbs by finding the bolt on the back of the headlamp assembly. its a bit awkward to get to in 7th gens, but it can be done. turning it clockwise with a ratchet will raise the cutoff line and vice versa. you'll need to have a pretty flexible arm to get it behind it though.

to actually aim them, you should park your car about 10ft from a wall (preferably at night), turn on your lights and check to see if the center of beam of light matches up on both headlamps.

bleh, dont know if that came out clear. maybe im just really tired, but good luck anyway. :P

 

yea aiming is easy

 

idk, bc i had it done once and u know its so white that it almost looks blue, so the cops stoped me and told me to take it off bc they thought the light was blue, and i answered him, "no its white" the cop took out is flash light and was all like "no look this is white" that pissd me off bc the flash light was yellow,[i think its illigal in MI] but how come the bmw's and mercedes gets to have those nice lights and honda cant? >
