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.

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??

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.

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

you will not maximize the output of the HID bulb if you install an plug and play h4 rebased bulb. And it will cause so much glare to oncoming traffic. Please avoid this and consider other motorists. Halogen is for halogen headlamps. Meron naman yung 2.0 na oem headlamps and that comes with a Philips D2R HID bulb and a Mitsubishi ballasts. Yung reflectors nun is matched sa HID bulb. Yung stock bulb mo is HB4. Bosch Germany does not mfg OEM HID syst na HB4 ang bulb. D2 ang bulb ng mga OEM na hid system.

If you want to improve lighting:

a. Get a better halogen bulb, like Philips XP, PIAA, etc.

b. Kung budget pde bolt on projector but the output will not be wide and intense as a true HID projector tapos China ang HID kit mo. Hindi mo rin magagamit yung bulb and of course the bolt on projector if you decide to upgrade. Pro: mura, Con: mediocre performance and no long term reliability.

c. Go for a straight OEM projector retrofit like a FXR, TSX, TLZKWR projector + oem HID ballasts and bulbs. Best output + reliability.
