They are all Illegal......

I had 4300K fitted to my old civic which is the whiter and oem looking one... and i had to remove them or go to court over it.

In fact if you go for 4300k that is the most light you will get... something like
3200 lumens where as the 6000k only has 2800 lumens
Also bit of tech for you:
A halogen bulb reflects from right to left and a Xenon bulb reflects from up to down so when you fit a H.I.D kit to you original Honda head lights the relfectors are the wrong way and therefore you do not get a perfect beam like you would with halogen.....

and this is why mr P.C plod pulled me over as he stated the beam was all over the place.
car was a 1997 EK4 vti uk spec.

i think the law states a car can only have H.I.D lights or xenons if it came with them from the factory or has a self leveling system...as the reflectors in the headlights will be set up for them...

my advice would be get a kit that doesn't have HI/LO beam as this means you can turn your xenon's off and use the xenon's for "OFF ROAD USE"

You can't turn off a single beam, that just means when you want to flash someone or put it on full beam, it will be the original yellow/white colour.

The xenons are only "legal" if they are projector lights. I see people everyday with HID's, to me they aren't illegal as such, they "frowned upon".
 
i did want a HID kit for the 9 but she's gotta be fixed and drivable first,
 
Not any more thanks Ian, last few months have been hard on cashflow, got 1 from mike @ r motion for £45.

Cant wait to see your's at japfest, hopefully be up and running for the first meet of 2011,

wasn't trying to put them down i just thought i would share my info with others as i don't want anyone else to get pulled over and fined for them...
£60. thats only reason i know mate..
also flashing in the highway code is frowned upon...again i have first hand experince of this as recently someone flashed someone to let them out and that person then broadsided my car, and the insurance went my way as i pulled up the highway code..
wander how many people have projector lights ? wouldn't mind seeing the difference in the beam to oem lights.
as said though mate not trying to put them down at all, jsut thought i'd help others. :)

I know u weren't putting them down mate, don't worry :nice:
Don't think anyone would have projectors on an ek, wouldn't look right. The hid's are a lot brighter than oem but hard to get a pic of them
 
Hi general I pmd you the other day about these would I still be able to pay you in the next half hour or am I too late?? Many thanks sam
