Anyone play with HIDs much?

06 accord, and no but I know what you're talking about haha

Its an 06 but doesnt have projector housings? I know halogen projector housings arent nearly as good as HID ones, they still work A LOT better than whats most likely in OPs car.

I'm in the state over (MN) so OP you and I get about the same amount of snow, I was thinking about HID's too, how well do you think they'd work in heavy snow? (blue vs lightblue/white)

The blue HID's in Rain/Snow are absolute ****....You cant see very well and the reflections blind the hell out of oncoming traffic....that second part is if your not using a projector type housing with a cutoff.

Kangaroux is posting pics. They look way better in person. ****** iPad camera. They are aimed perfectly, I don't blind anyone, I had A friend drive my car towards me in the dark when I was in his car. We passed each other going opposite ways to test, they didn't bother me at all.

how did they treat you in rain i have been thinking on hids

 

[Oh6AcCoRd 10+ year member]

Not that bad cus they are kinda low and higher aimed I'd be blind lol

Clarity wise though in general, these are a huge improvement even if 8000k's. They make the road so much more visible to the naked eye in a way, hard to explain but ita like using an led flashlight compared to a regular one. The led flashlight has much better general visibility.
