Bulb recommendations ?
OK so I did try HID s in my HB they work awesome in low beam not o good in high beam think its do to the way the lens is made also having an issue with one ..on and off lol mind of its own .

Ty price is good too, funny how ppl complain about the life of the bulb forgetting that with DRL they are always on .
I have removed my DRL so they should last a yr or more. sent from my S4 on Mars |

Mine never came with DRL so I never went through that
But with my HIDs, they were trouble. I loved them but they were spread all over the place and don't even get my started on the high beams. I felt bad blinding people lol When one finally went out, I had mixed feelings about it I love the back of my car, the front... not so much |

Unless you have the projectors then you would be okay. I dont think its the lens but check this out: when I had mine installed, the metal piece that deflects the light from the bulb:
 was facing upwards (opening was upward thus pushing light up) instead of down because of the way the slots/ inserts are set up in the headlight. Maybe that's the problem because on my friends car (civic), his was facing down and his HIDs worked perfectly. Strange huh? I think that's the problemI love the back of my car, the front... not so much |
