headlight......
Guys! I have a problems and I need some advices. I just brought a set of 10k hid light bulbs and tried to replace them today, I did what the owner manual said, but I still couldnt do it. The space on the side was to small for my hand to get in there, so if anyone knows how to replace the bulbs, please let me know!!!! Thx alot!

remove the front bumper then the headlight? would be the easiest to change the bulbs...

thx guy, I will try it again. I have 8k HID on my fog light also, that's why I would like to have 10k on my headlight. My friend got a 08 tl-s, he has 12k on his headlight, it looks so cool.....

What is needed to change the temp range of the light bulb in an HID setup? Just different bulbs? I put HID's in my wife's element, but have never tried to change bulbs in an existing HID application, i.e. our TSX/Accord.

yes, you just change the bulb to whatever the temp you want. You dont need any mod on the existing HID kits. By the way, I dont really want to remove the bumper, is there any other way to change the bulbs???

why would you go with 10K bulbs? Its been proven that above 6000 Kelvins, you lose lumens for the purple beam.

some people care for the look over everything else.
10k is a bit extreme, its not going to be very bright.

I know 10k wouldnt be as bright as the stock one, but I like the color. It is deep blue and will match my 8k foglight which is blue. My friend got 12k on the headlight which is puple and yellow on the fog light, so you can imagine how they look together.

I loved my RSX.. it was a base, but my rents bought it for me cause they got my bro an 02 rsx... My bro has a 06 type S now.

I Don't miss my RSX too much cause since it was the base, the TSX is faster... and there is always a type s in my driveway.. After i graduate college, i wish to pick up a used ssm 05 or asm 06 RSX and mod it exactly how my RSX was/how i wanted it to be.
