sometimes after continued snowfall, my headlight housing is soooooo dirty, that the light won't properly shine through it. If I'm not up for washing the car yet, I'll just clean the headlights at the gas station with the windsheild cleaner thing.

maybe you just need to wash your car or something.

I'm old school. Too bad my post gets deleted as EliteAccord.:fawk:

Actually there is no good post about HID since most if not all post related to HID gets deleted due to too much information.

Just search under Silverstar, PIAA, HID. Good luck.

I wrote up a article on lighting back in the day that I could give to someone that could make it sound cooler. I noticed there are a butt load of threads, I am sure this article could answer a butt load of questions as is too

F*CK NO!

Didn't you read my post??? THEY SUCK....there is a good chance that they'll blow in a couple of weeks or months. Buy them if you don't care about being able to see only 1/2 the amount of light than your stock halogens and seeing almost nothing at all during rain. sh*t, feels like i just wasted my time explaining how bad "xenon"/superwhite/plazma white bullsh*t. IF YOU REALLY WANT THAT "white" look, then just got for a pair of Sylvania Silverstars 9006 low beam bulbs and replace your low beams with them if you don't want to do the 9005 conversion.

It means to get your ass owned by the mods/admins and then be forced off the board.

Basically, he defied the moderators by posting semi-porn in his sig while whining about "freedom of speech" and refused to cooperate to the point where he was a nuisance. Hence he had a choice, leave or get banned. He left about 2 hours before he woulda been banned.

I like you Chris, but that's how it went down. Now go back to IL before your girlfriend's name gets banned :fawk:

Its not like I haven't been banned before so I could care less what happens. Besides we both use this name.:fawk:

AcsRcool - I'm still around just under different names. If somebody needs my help I'm willing to help. Just because this forum board doesn't want me here I'm here until the very end. Besides you can always find me on www.importlove.com if you have any Accord questions.

Buy Showoff brand off eBay... 9005 for the high beam... 9006 for the high beam. I have these in many friends rides and they havent gone out yet... in over a year... we are all very happy with them and I PROMISE you will be too. Don't pay too much attention to flamers around here... sometimes they get too pissed off, do what you want. If you want something a little better, but not quite as bright... get some Sylvania SilverStar's from your local auto parts store... they run about $50 for 2 bulbs... where as the Showoff's are about $30 shipped. Also, if you decide to do the conversion, which uses 9005 for your low beams too... it basically gives you more light... check this site out... it helps a TON:

Lastly, here are a few useful links having to do with your car...

Good luck and have fun... this forum, despite the times ppl can be asses, will surely help you out a lot.
