HID solutions for the RSX?
I used to have a McCulloch (sp?) HID kit for my Integra, it comes with bulbs, ballasts etc, not your fake HID bulb.
After installing the kit, I didn't get the razor sharp light that you get from a stock HID solution like on the S2000 or a TSX. I learned later on that the stock headlights of my Integra aren't designed for HID.
How do the stock RSX headlights behave with HID kit? What are "real" HID solutions out there to get that razor sharp lights you get from cars that come with headlights designed for HIDs?

real solution is getting the jdm or aussie oem hid housing, which has the reflectors set up for hid....
what you can do is a hid projector retrofit or get a glare shield to try and get the best cut off as possible...
nothing can replace it for not being set up from factory for hid though, oem is best imo for that

Basically that's what I did, I found a great deal on a HID kit from the comparison shopping site TunerMarket.com...$250 shipped!. Forgot the name of the seller though, just search HID. Then I created my own retrofit housing, it's not horrible without the housing, but you don't get as clear of a "beam".
