Twin Cities HID retrofit?

Is there anyone in the Twin Cities who has retrofitted their Civic with HID lighting? I'm talking about a retrofit using HID projectors, not a conversion kit.

If so, I'd love to meet up and see your setup and ask you a few questions. I'm wanting to do a HID retrofit in my '08 Civic Hybrid and want to see what I'm getting into before I start ordering parts. Thanks!!

i do but customlightz did the retrofitting. Brdhouse also did but it got wrecked during his accident. Liu has it too but he's in Illinois for school.

I'm running on TSX projectors, mdx shrouds, ebay ballasts, phillips 85122+ 4300k oem bulbs, and ebay adaptor. It has been no problem since November. What city you live in?






and the hottest pic taken by Brdhouse



if i were to do it again, i would have the housing in black like brdhouses, liu's

the best money I've spent on this car. Would do it again in a heartbeat. A former member here described his retro as "lasik for my car" <-- so true!

Do it, Customlights will set you up. Send a Pm to -Bionic-
