HID for FD???

Does anyone know of an HID kit for the FD that still uses the pop up headlight and retains both the high and low beams???

Herblenny has a sweet one, with comparison pics before and after.

Im sure others here do to. You just get onto Ebay and buy the ballast and H4 bulb.

you best bet is to locate i kit of a car at a junkyard, 99% of the places selling hid kits are now recalling them due to the goverment deeming them illegal

if you can't source them from where you are, I suggest you contact one of the many parts importers that frequent this site.

I can go to any autobacs store in japan and order them (and in some cases, pick them off the shelf) - so I can't imagine it would be too hard for someone to procure you a set

I changed mine as well but having problems aligning them properly, does anyone know how to align the lights properly? I'm talking about adjusting the beam angle.

I bought some low beam only HID's(5000K) for $340. I think they are fine w/o the high beams. I don't miss having the high beams at all. The HID's are so damn bright! - A must have.

I think i have the 6100k in stock housing.

Its definitely brighter than stock. and I haven't had any problems with other drivers. its Hella blasters and bulbs.

check ebay.. you'll find a set between 300-400 for H4 kit.
