Be very careful when installing bulbs, use rubber gloves if need be. Do not touch the bulbs!! The oils on your fingers can cause the bulbs to fail prematurely.

yeah, i made sure not to touch them when i installed. when i pulled them out, they were clean, so it didn't blow out because of that.

The only thing I'd do would be the 9005 (or whatever) conversion with stock bulbs.

They last forever.

The only other thing I'd do, is HID. But I cant justify $450 on headlights.

Yeah, they're awesome... but I can't justify it.

Plus, you lose that nifty little beadie headlight look that I love so much about the Integra.
It just comes out look like two little SUNS parked on your car. Which is great for lighting, but doesnt look as cool.
jahaahaha
