I just did my install with the , 5000k. I'm very happy with the color. . . just a tick higher k than factory HID, I posted a video of it on youtube, but as you all know, HID in pictures is hard to capture. (Just search for Civic 5000k) The color is like pure white with the tiniest bit of blue/indigo/violet in it.

TafEx, I ran into a similar problem. Someone said channel locks and that worked for me perfectly. It's really hard to get enough leverage between your factory plug and the plug for the kit. 2 Channel locks, one on either side of the connection and you slowly snap it together. Reassuring *click*!

I also found a really good new place to mount the ballasts. It requires a torx T30 (Starbit) but you can bolt it on directly! I want to post picture of this and my lights. . . what is a good picture hosting service that people use on here?

Thanks, Coastale.
