Second Gen. Honda Jazz/Fit

Kung first timer, install ka nalang ng plug and play lights.
Mahirap ang HID install (as with everything electrical), kung babuyin yan ng installer mo, babuy na yan for life.
Bale sa plug and play, bombilya lang yung papalitan.
Google up on the OSRAM Nightbreakers or Philips XtremeVision
If you're hell-bent on getting HIDs, go to garyq at hidretrofit.net
If ever magpapagawa ako, sa kaniya ako magpapagawa. But I'm happy with stock on all our cars at the moment hehe.

+1 on this one. when i was upgrading my lighting system i started with Philips XP, better than OEM at the same time doesnt pose as hazzard on the road, no offense to plug and play HID users but it does emit that excessive glare which blinds incoming motorists.
here is what i have learned so far and feedback from fellow members at GE garage.
1. Philips eXtreme Performance (XP) - 80% more light, stock color yung light output
2. Philips eXtreme Vision (EV) - 100% more light pero whitish yung kulay ng light output, good when its not raining pero once it starts pouring, white light have difficulty passing through rain, results, poor visibility when raining. also doenst work well with black asphalt
3. OSRAM night breakers - white light, not as bright at EV

btw OSRAM yung brand ng oem stock bulb ng Jazz.

once budget permits, go for the retrofit by GQ. its safe, light output is extremely well, and glare is minimized to the max. medyo mahal nga lang pero sulit naman. price ranges from 12K-26K naman e so manageable naman i guess. onting ipon lang.

Yan ba ung almost 5k Paps pag K&N?

papi different yung cabin filter sa air filter.

yung cabin filter eto yung nasa ilalim ng glove compartment naten, this one is used to filter the air circulating through your car. got my washable from miran of HCCP. torque yung brand.

yung air filter naman sa engine yun, meron K&N and Hurricane brand.

these washable/reusable filters are good investment kasi one time mo na lang bibilhin. kapag madumi na linis lang pwede na ulit. atleast uber menus gastos talaga sa PMS.

Magkano po ba ang aabutin ng pa-retrofit ng projector headlight for HID?

check mo lang sa website ni GQ papi. pero just to give you an idea nasa 15K to 28K yung packages. stage 1,2 or 3. depending on your budget.

[bayen]

Help naman....
my jazz has several light scratches on the left and right sides
sinubukan kong ipasok sa insurance but they are charging 10,000 for the participation cost

baka naman may recommended kayo na shop who can fix my paint, kung meron sa south area mas ok... baka mas mura compared sa casa

parang ang mahal ng participation mo papi. usually 3% lang ng total value ng car yung participation.
check mo dun sa insurance policy mo papi. ako 2K lang participation ko e. 2 yrs pa lang sakin yung GE ko.

Thanks sir, 2k lang din yung participation cost ko, kaso nung tiningnan nung insurance adjuster based from multiple incidents daw kaya 10k singil... still under battle pa din ako with the MAA assurance na at least bawasan mga 4-6k pde na sana eh

Sa Import elementz sir sa may Araneta. Actually modulo tawag nila jan. naka post sa sulit.

maraming salamat sir

[imogen]

Ingat lang sa paglagay ng HID mga sir, even if retrofitted.
I'm not against it, pero may risks.

Yung aken nasira lens ko, retrofitted aken, puno ng oxidation, ewan ko kung bakit, 35w lang HID pero lakas manira ng lens, nagpa-retrofit ako last February, ang lens ng both headlights ko ngayon puno ng oxidation, swirl marks at haze. I already asked Honda how much ang lens pero they only sell the assembly which is 10k each. putting plug and play HID bulbs will also destroy the reflector of your headlights, magkakaroon ng letter 'V' na namuti dun sa reflector sa taas ng bulb, also add the glare and loss of light compared sa stock halogen.

Pre ano sabi ni Gary sayo. Yung sakin Dec ko pinakabit so far ok pa naman. Gamit ko auto sa gabi araw araw

bought it 1.6K sometime back in 2010 from C3.
it was still working when i had my headlights retrofitted with projectors. sold it to a buddy of mine from VCP last Feb 2012 it was still working perfectly.
pinakabit ko lang dun sa isang car accessory shop here in angeles before.

sakit daw ng mga honda yan sir lalo na raw FD. binalik ko kase sa kanya ni-rub yung loob para mawala yung oxidation, pero in return puno ng haze at swirl marks yung lens ko, that was last month, ngayon meron na ulit oxidation. di ko alam bakit, sabi ng iba in time magiging ganon talaga, pero not as soon as what happened saken. di naman papalitan ni Gary yung lens ko, I think the warranty only covers the projector, bulbs and ballast. nawalan narin ako gana actually kase ang mahal tapos ganon lang nangyari saken, kaka 8months palang ng jazz ko today then labo na ng mga lens ng headlights ko, tapos may parang bird droppings pa sa loob dahil dun sa oxidation.

[renzo_d10]

Sir pwede po ba kayo mag-post ng pictures?

Hmmm. Hinde naman siguro sakit ng Honda yan.

Yung FD namin na 2007 good as new ang headlights. Walang ka-haze haze. Daily driven, gamit headlight everyday. 64k na odo.

Ang may haze lang na Honda na nakita ko yung Type Z ng kapitbahay namin. Partida binaha pa yun nung Ondoy.
Yung 2 City ipis din ng kapitbahay namin walang signs of ageing yung headlights. Hindi rin nabaha both.

Aw sayang naman. Sakin wala naman signs ng moist pero meron hairline scatches sa labas since araw araw ko pinupunasan di din naman maiwasan. Kita lang yung scratch pag naiilawan ng projector since sobrang intense nga ng buga ng ilaw. Anyway kung papapalitan mo ng headlight yan I think aabot ng 10K+ isang assembly. Nagtanong din kasi ako dati sa honda gusto ko papalitan yung lens ko para 100% scratch-free, di daw pwede kelangan daw buong assembly.

Ganda nga ... we already got our GE .. taffeta white ... ano po ba tamang PSI sa mga gulong natin ako ksi sinundan ko lang yung naka indicate sa door driver side 32 sa harap .. 30 sa likod pero matagtag parin ... ano po ba ginawa ng iba para mawala ang tagtag? maliban empre sa pagpapalit ng coil spring ... tnx

Sir, ganun din tire pressure ko, 32 front / 30 rear on my 15" stock wheels sa 1.3GE ko. napansin ko nga na medyo tagtag ng onti. i changed to nitrogen air yung gulong and ang laki ng binawas sa tagtag, got mine for 600 for all 4 wheels, unlimited refilling naman kaya medyo mahal. if you back read, yung iba parang 20-50 pesos lang ang charge per wheel.
