Hey hey. The bulb type for the civic fd is HB4. There are lots of different types of bulbs. HB4 is just the one for our model. Cheers & nice find !

[Honda_FD]

Yeah. What eNGee said. Headlights are H4 and foggies are H11.

I installed the headlights and fog lights at home. Its was a paiinnnnnnn. . .
You cant install them from under the bonnet, You have to go up from the wheel arches.

Enjoy and Good luck

you can also give these a go - i currently have them installed and they work great. also don't need to worry about where the ballast goes.

i bought this one as well, for my mums FD, it works really well, very bright. and theres no hassle for ballast placement cos its 1piece. pretty much a swap and go!
i highly recommend this!

on my FK2 the blinkers are done via the wheel arches it is such a pain.

Just take the front bumper off... Then you can do foggies and headlights all at once and mount the ballast properly... Takes an hour max dude

i got a set of MTEC if you want :)

hey guys, thought had a HID installed in my FD for a long time now. nearly 3 years and one right side bulb is gone. I dont what happened but its gone for good. Sometimes it flickers but nothing much. Now what can i do. I tried searching online for a single bulb replacement but cant find much info about it. So what are my options. Can i just take out the HID bulb and replace it with normal bulb ?

Any advice or experience would be appreciated.

[DuffyFD]

you can buy the HB4 bulbs man, ebay has them.

Buy a new pair, as opposed to getting just one, as the colour of HID's changes slightly over their life, and alot of them aren't exactly the "K" rating that they say.

[asgr8]

Thanks man. Will have a look at it.

hey Civic guys, random Qn.

what HB3 bulb you guys use on your FD? im trying to get something similiar as my philips crystal vision lights.
i was planning to get their HB3 ver. but the watts are 5+
If i would to get that, would their be a chance of burning the fuse/wires.

whats your recommendation for getting some decent lights

HI All,

Looking to get this for my FD; http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120600082165&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en#ht_10191wt_1141

I've got a few questions;

- Still tossing up between between 6000k vs 4300k. I don't want the too blue look, white with a nice tint of blue is nice, I fear the 6k would be too blue?
- Also HID with standard OEM headlights no mods, how is the output/ angle of light?can it be adjusted? I fear it just blind the cr@p of on coming traffic... do you get a lot of on coming traffic high beaming you?

If any has info of the above, appreciate if you could provide me some info.

Thanks in advance.

1. 6000 isn't that blue IMO. find a friend who has them and look for yourself
2. the output can be adjusted but at the end of the day, they're still HID's in reflector housings. I never got high beamed
