I have no idea!

But, I know who does. AlaskanEx put HIDs in the fogs on his '02 EX. See this post for what he used.

whatever you go with, please:
aim them correctly, or maybe just a bit more downwards than spec. HID bulbs, when not mounted in a projector housing put off light that is very blinding to traffic. it may not make anyone crash, but it IS just plain annoying.

dont go with 8000K bulbs or something else rediculous like that.
standard car bulbs are 3500K IIRC, the sun is somewhere around 2000K.
Pure white, according to most people is 4570K, depending on your eyes.
if i were going to pick a kit, i'd get a 4000K or 4500K kit. 5000K is tolerable, but anything more is, again, annoying.


when you wire everything up, make sure that you run relays to the ballasts so that they get power directly off the battery. this will let them run at optimal conditions, with no voltage drop.

also, keep an eye to making everything removable so that it can be put back to stock fairly easily. some people dont like HID lighting, and if you ever sell the truck, it will increase the value, and make less of a headache for them.

before anyone says im just old, im 23. i just like things done correctly and safely
