Hi guys,
looking to purchase HID's for my dc5r but no clue what bulbs to buy or what brand or kit would be good.
If you guys can let me know what bulbs & kit to get and any advice on how to install them.
It would be great!!
Thanks in advance !!

Get some OEM JDM HID lights. The ballasts are integral to the housing and they don't spray light everywhere like the Australian delivered lights do once you fit HIDs to them.

Obviously not you, and I also have HIDs fitted to the stock Australian lights so I guess I don't either. Just thought that the fellow might want to know what the not so ghetto option was.

Good point mate as thats the reason why i want JDM Headlights, they don't spray the HID's light everywhere like the AUDM lights do..

Its not the HID's....
Its the Headlight DESIGN...
JDM Headlights have a different style pattern as there designed to have HID's from factory while the AUDM headlights aren't designed hence why they Spray out....

It's not the HID's, it's the actual headlights, that why im now sourcing JDM Headlights for that purpose... Rather not have the hassles of blinding people and putting other people in danger but hey thats me

i seriously dont get hassled by other ppl on the road, let alone cops ... been stared from the fornt by copper,s they dont do shit, i even got fined for foggies on, didnt say crap about hid's. if the jdm headlights were cheap, i'd buy though.

ep3s have stock hid with so called jdm headlight, without me not adjusting them they spray all over the place. And when im driving i dont expect pplz to stare directly into my headlights, thats just common sense. If i know a headlight is bright im not gonna go staring at it more

Are JDM headlights plug and play on AUDM DC5Rs?

I'm pretty sure you need pigtails (http://www.icbmotorsport.com/jdmdc5itrhid.html) to properly fit JDM headlights into AUDM tegs

If hypothetically you had a JDM body harness, can you swap it over with AUDM harness?
