Ooo .. I got 55w 4300k in my FX-R retros and 3000k 35w in my civic fogs .. I light up the road like the sun o_O I can see if I can take a pic if you want :p But yeah, I don't think cops hassle you for that crap nowadays.

your really really really over thinking all this just relax dude lol... its just plug and play like said before... you can mount the ballast anywhere u want near the headlight, you can get the mounting brackets and just screw it in to the frame part rite above the headlight (thats what i did), or if you dont want the brackets just ziptie em to something around there which most ppl do.

oh and if you get 55W im pretty sure you need a relay so it wont burn your wires, 35w is safe. dont go over 6K



wat is the best hids to get i have an 02 honda accord 63kmiles

-__- milege has absolutely NOTHING to do with hids.... and to answer your question just read through this thread and other hid threads, dont be lazy.

Yeah, I figured that out. I went with 35W 5000k's. Im sorry for asking another question, but did you take your bumper off? Just wondering.

And yeah 55W is to much, your low beams only pull 51W (in my 99') and that would probably mess something up with the wiring harness.
