Hi all,

I bought a new Odyssey in December 2009. I didn't buy the luxury model with HID lights and night driving is a bit of a chore with the standard halogen lights.

Does anyone know which HID upgrade kit I should buy for my car?

All help will be appreciated.

I am using this for my RB1 3rd gen. Not the cheapest (it was cheaper when I bought it last time), but I haven't had a problem for 2 years.

So which bulb size would it be to fit? I have the same question for my '05 RB1.
(I only ask coz I don't have an owner's manual). :(

H11 for low beams and fog lights
H1 for high beams

Or you can buy HID Slim Kit from www.vvme.com (http://www.vvme.com) for less than $100. That's the place that i normally buy for me & my friends.

Hey
(sorry, trying not to hijack this thread too much ;))

Nice find.

And what would be the difference between a slim kit (other than it being slim) as to a normal HID kit?
Advantages/disadvantages?

And would the Digital Slim H8(H11) HID Conversion Kit be the right one for my ride? What does the 'digital' bit do in this kit?

as i checked stock bulbs for Odyssey 09, http://www.vvme.com/page.html?chapter=5&id=49
here is the situation : 9006 hid kit for low beam, 9005 hid for high beam and H11 for fog beam...
i run vvme 43k hid kit for almost one year and install 3 sets vvme hids for my wife and friend's car...

i recommend you to order vvme hid kits from ebay... the same hid kits from the same company but cheaper prices....
