HID question..

[jzosa]

Mga sir, bago lang ako dito. I have a 2006 1.8V Civic. Gusto ko sanang malaman kung ok ba ang Bosch na HID from Germany. I'm planning to buy one kasi. Gusto ko din sanang malaman ano size nung bulbs ko, ang pagkakaalam ko kasi H4, pero di kasi ako sure. hehe Thank you.

^^bosch would be great. compared to the taiwan made HID bulbs, i am sure they are more durable.

di ko din alam yung bulbs nyang civic eh.

[jzosa]

Thank you sir. Nga pala, alam mo ba kung kelangan pa palitan ung housing? Wala kasi tlga akong alam pa dito kaya madaming tanong. Multi reflector ung headlights ko according sa vehicle specs, compatible ba sa kahit anong housing ng vehicle ung mga HID??

[1D4LV]

multi reflector is not recommended. dapat projector. so kung may makukuha kang projector type HL, mas ok.
compatible ang HID, pero hindi recommended. bulag kasalubong mo dyan.

search na lang for HID-related threads here.

[jzosa]

Ganun ba? Hndi dw projector eh. Malas naman.. Sige sir. Kung may iba pang makakatulong dyan, pls help me out. Thank you.

welcome to tsikot no need to replace any on the ass’y. the 2.0 variant is equipped with an HID as stock so basically plug and play lang yan. i'm not also sure with the bulb type just don’t go above 6000K for better visibility in the rain and fog, then when it comes to your hi-beam, IMO mag all weather / all season ka na halogen. nice combination yan

Thank you sir. Wait, so ibig sabihin I just have to buy an HID kit tpos plug and play na? Di ko na kelangan ng projector assembly? 1.8V lang kasi ung akin so baka may difference. hehehe Di ko pa dn kasi sure ung model from Bosch dahil ibebenta lang sakin ng kakilala ko. Please help me clarify things. Naguguluhan ako eh.

yes no need, sure ako dyan, yung 2.0 FD variant gaya sa yo naka HID yun na stock.

pero alamin mo muna yung kit na binebenta sa yo, iba ibang sockets iba ibang bulb, kung ilang K (kelvin) – very important ito para di ka magsisi in the end, iba iba kasi kulay niyan (color temp). go for 6000K or lower basta don’t go above it unless gusto mo ang bluish to purple na no effect. talaga bang made in Germany? Daming mga bosch pero mga Taiwan made.

Para less hassle try to visit any car accessory shop, ask what HID kit would fit and also para malaman mo pricing, normally nasa 6K up with 1 year warranty and some go with 2 years.

Lastly against din ako sa irresponsible user ng HID ha, but civic FD is an exception wag lang babaguhin ang aiming pataas.

o ayan naman pala naka stock na eh. bakit kailangan mo pa palitan?
ay teka...2.0 variant yung sabi ni XTO. 1.8 variant nung sa iyo. iba nga ata ang assembly nyan, kung multi reflector nga.

kung projector na assembly mo, plug and play na lang. bili ka na lang ng HID kit, konting connection lang, ok na.

ganito na lang, kunan mo picture yung HL mo, post mo dito so we can determine.
