The H.I.D. lights I put in my 06 Civic i got from Welcome to K-Light HID
They're not the most expensive but their not the cheapest. I've had them for a few months now and love them.



HID vs Stock



Once the lights warm up its a white almost light blue, not the gay *** bright ricer blue that you cant see ***** with

In my 04 I have 35wt 5000k HIDs in my fogs. They are 9145 lamps IIRC.

If the fogs are for function and not just bling, keep them as far below 5000K as possible. Around 3K to 3.5K provides best visibility. It used to be hard to find HID's like that, but now getting more common.

I got all my truck HID's from Todd at Retro-Solutions.

I started all stock, then added Silver Stars. Little Improvement.

Next were 35wt 5000K HID's in the fogs. They overpowered the SS's. Big improvement, but didn't throw light out as far as I would have liked.

Then I added 55wt 4300K HID's to the headlights. Huge improvement, but the color of the light was a little yellow for my liking.

Swapped to 5000K lamps in the HL's and I'm happy now.

I've had one ballast go out in the years I've run these HID's. Retro sent a new one as soon as I sent an e-mail.
