Anyone in Florida who can help me out with this mod? If so, I'll order them ASAP! :)

Aiming instructions and output pictures added to the second post.

Thank you for this thread, civicdrivr.

Im glad someone knows how to add HIDs without blinding other drivers and makes the knowledge free :)

Yay! Now I just have to pay up and wait for it to ship all the way here!

First off just want to thank you for putting together a great DIY. I plan on using it when I do my install

What happen with the police?

You can't just casually mention that you were getting questioned by the police without telling us the story.

Its not that big of a story, he saw me parked on the side of an unlit road in a lightly populated area at midnight pulling stuff out of my trunk. I can see how that would look a bit suspicious :bellyroll: The cop was just curious what I was doing, I explained, and the cop was confused. Then he said "ok, just dont get hit" and left.

About 5 minutes later after I moved my tripod to another spot, the traffic picked up, which is very odd for that area, so I packed it in. I'll probably head back out Thursday night to take some more pics. The cops will be out in full force tonight and tomorrow night looking for drunk drivers, so I'd rather avoid annoying them/being hassled.

I just completed a retrofitsource installation.
Your efforts are greatly appreciated, thank you for your details!

@civicdrivr, I've got some pictures to supplement what you've done here, so if you want I can send them to you and you can add them in the appropriate spots. No sense in me rewriting a helpful DIY!

EDIT:
Here is where I mounted the ballasts:

why not show us how your headlight looks like with the retrofit? any difference from the original look?

Mine look stock in "appearance", but not in "performance"

I've got the kit, just can't decide if I should black out the lights while they're open or not. Don't want to do it twice. Ultramarine...Hrm...

I'll post up some pics of mine tonight in my build thread. That might help you decide :thumbup:

My daughters car is black, I left them alone, it retains the designer original intention, no dragon eye effect, no continuity, stock retains the intended lines.
A lot of college art majors weighed in on the idea, 9-10 preferred stock
Just an opinion.

Ballast Mounting Location
 

I mounted mine in this location
