So my g/f just got a 2002 Accord from her mom and I hate the stock headlights. I am really wanting to update her headlights and install a good looking set of HID's. I have been highly thinking about getting these; http://www.k2motor.com/2lhpacd98v1ks.html and then pulling the projectors for a set of projectors that are worth it, assuming the one's with those headlights aren't So i'm wondering if anyone on here has any experience with these headlights or if you have other suggestions for what I could look at using.q

I'm a virgin to the honda world, what does that mean to blackhouse them? My only conern is that I want nothing than to put a solid set of HID'S on her car and I refuse to put HID's in reflectors housings, in my experience this doesn't work well and provides nowhere near the results of projectors. I won't keep whatever projectors are in those headlights if I get them, probably go with a TSX or S2000 swap depending on room.

Hmmm I like the second one's as they're still for sale lol. Are the TYC's worth it or is that a brand I should strictly stay away from?

Don't get halo projectors, esp not in chrome.
and this is coming from a dude who has them lol
The halos look pretty cool, but it gets kinda old and the light output and cut off on them is not great.
Get the TYC's if you don't feel like saving up for a retro fit.
