For 99 Honda Accord 2 dr. I would like to replace my OEM headlight with the new TYC projector headlight that I saw on EBAY. Is it a good Idea? Anyone have any idea? Will be greatful for any comments about this. Thanks.

 

A lot of guys do it, the projector isn't quite OEM quality, but better than most aftermarket ones.

 

For some reason he's always bias against aftermarket projectors.

IMHO, my TYCs put out more light to the ground than my OEM Hondas. The light is cleaner and extends longer. I have the black TYCs on a 98 Coupe.

 

black tyc's on my red coupe (98). could not be happier- I did replace the bulbs for lo-beam with PIAA. As kenton said, more usable light on the road (compared to stock w\ PIAA 9006 IMO.

 

If I'm the "he", I didn't mean to sound negative, I posted so he'd know that lots of guys get them, and so he'd know it's not a shady product he should avoid. And I mentioned that they are better than most aftermarket projectors, but probably not as good as an oem projector. I've never had them before, so I can't comment on the light output vs stock reflectors.

Sorry if I was unclear.

 

the light output of both oem lights is almost equal to having one tyc projector.mine use the same bulbs for low and high beams.

 

Yeah, you're the 'he'

The TYCs aren't as good as an OEM projector or reflector, because you stated both in your comment.

I'll just do an experiment, I'm putting my stock heads and tails on really soon and I'll do a shot at night with low (OSRAM SilverStar H1) and Low+High (SS lows, OEM (for TYC) OSRAM H1 high beams) versus my 9006/9005 OEM heads

 

Do a retrofit thats the way to go if you have the funds of course.
