Type S headlights

[_CiVIC_]

Just curious to know, does the new TypeS come with HID's?? or are they plain yellow lights?

[seihoa]

plain yellow< i think

[babyboy]

i think there yellow too? now im curious.... someone confirm if it is hid or not??

[vincent]

Normal halogen!

[_CiVIC_]

well at different angles I think I may have seen that slight blue tinge.. but I'm still curious to know.. By the way does anyone here think the headlights aren't that strong?? Because I certainly think so..

[euro1978]

100% not HID

[^^v]

well at different angles I think I may have seen that slight blue tinge..
that blue/purple tinge u see on the lux euros n what not.. r caused by the Projector lense (convex lense)... nothing to do with HID's...
n i dun think the Type S comes with projectors (correct me if im wrong)...
so maybe ur just seeing things lolz :p

no they do not
they are standard reflector headlights with H1 bulbs

[dark138]

tofu is right

definately not HIDs, and definately not angel eyes
no projectors or anything fancy either

[Boost]

If your going to use HID in reflectors, Get the d2r bulbs.

[XPLOSV]

so let me know when you want it,

I've got the H1 HID kit sitting in my room before I bought the Type S..
Now I need to find the X-Clip and trim it to fit... But I had a look around the engine bay.. can't see any good spot to put the ballast.

[_CiVIC_]

nice typeS first of all bro.. so how much did the HID kit set you back???

i mounted mine under the headlight
it's a tight nice fit but i'm not too sure what it would be like for the typeS
