I got those on my ED they are so much better than what was in there!
No just need soe white/bluish bulbs on the park lights

lol

phillips h4?! they are MAD

hahah... sorry.

h4 is the "size" of ur bulb. h4 means, u can only fit h4 bulbs in ur civic. there are different sizes, llike h4, hb4, h3, h1 etc.

phillips seems to make alright bulbs, from my experience. last quite a while, and light output if pretty good. depending on which model you have, will depend on the color etc.

phillips make bluevision, diamond vision, crystal vision etc.

anyone knows wat dc2R uses? which globes?..and you reckon anypoint in me getting a HID kit?

h4 is just your globe size man -_-

light output (how bright it is) standard bulbs...even those that say "HID" are no where near as bright as the HID kits...

all these 4300K, 5000K, 6000K ....they are colour output readings based on the light spectrum..
4300K is closer to pure white....then about 6000K is bluish, 8000K is starting to get purple...

Correct......otherwise known as the the colour temprature of the light (ask any serious photographer) :)

One of the significant factors of HID lamps over conventional globes is that they are more efficient at converting electricity to light. Hence why 35W HID globes create more light than their 55W counterparts that are found in normal production cars.

HID's are way cool lol...i got 4300k HID's looks hektik at night fingz turn bluish...

on a side note...
i think some.. if not most street lamps use Xenon gas as well...

correct me if im wrong... :confused:

Hello everyone,

I've just found and joined your forum - and I hope I can assist / explain any question anyone may have regarding Xenon or HID lighting.

We've been doing local R&D and competition with our products for over 4 years now - so we can offer a product that is designed and engineered to perform, never made to a price. So that's right - we aren't the cheapest - but our customers like performance, reliability and national backup & support.

If anyone would like to try a kit in their car - just give us a call.

Thanks
