HID heheheehe!!! - Honda Prelude Forum

I just got my HID installed yesterday and they look fuc*en great. I drove home in the fog and it was so bright that it lit up the damm sky. Ok maybe I might be over exaggerating a bit but damm that **** was bright. Unfortunately it took me and a buddy about 4 hours to install that bad boy. The only reason why it took so long was because we took off the front bumper and headlights to make sure the bulb was aligned and bending of the reflector was necessary. Since the reflector was bent, so light went into the air, and if I was to be chased down by po-po, the air unit would catch me 100 miles away. But anyways, this is a great improvement on the road. Also on the way home, I lined up with the IS 300 HID on the freeway, and my HID overtook his HID, man that was tears to my eyes yo.

I got the HID kit conversion from autolamps-lamps online .com. and these are not the piece of crap K2 and vision bulbs that come with the phillips ballast. The people at this site have had 12 years experience with Phillips company. and have the best knowledge for HID. I have done tons of research before buying these HID's and concluded that not all HID are created equal. Well the price I got them for was 510 because I bought 3 pairs so the guy gave me a discount. and Oh yeah, as soon as I get a hold of a digi cam, I will post up some pictures.

Man I did a good job on those except for the problem with the driver side. Good job fixing it Danny. Hope you dont screw up those civic lights!

Oh yea,

prelude2k got his HIDs and he likes em. Also, he didnt have any trouble aligning them. They came out better than yours b/c this time i paid even closer attention. With each pair of headlights i get better and better. Anyone else interested?

Nice post the site

soon2bsh · 02-08-2002, 04:06 AM

ohhhhhh, man...how much, how much!!

AndoOKC · 02-08-2002, 07:51 AM

if you are referring to the projectors in the prelude housing, you can get e-code S4's for 475 then you can find bulbs and ballasts for 200-250, and a wiring harness for 40. I charge 175 for labor.

475
250
40
175
------- = 940

remmebr if you AIM me, we can find a way to reduce these costs significantly. but if you want it right away that is pretty much what you will be speding.

my AIM is "AndoOKC"
