HID Kit installation help?

Andy

I have a 2005 Honda Accord Coupe

I recently installed these new projector headlights.
I have done so much research but I have some concerns and just looking for a second opinion

Aftermarket Headlight unit:

I have been told that the standard halogen bulbs are just not enough for these headlights in terms of looks and light output. (As my OEM headlight units worked better with the factory halogen bulbs)




I am planning on purchasing
H1 Kensun 6000K HID kit

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004ZF3IT6/ref=noref?ie=UTF8&psc=1&s=automotive

I simply like to know if they are worth it and if they will fit.


Concerns:
- Slim ballast? or regular? (seems like everyone just gets the regular)
- Bulb not fitting due to HID bulb being longer than the standard halogen bulb?
-Temperature of HID kit effecting aftermarket headlight unit?
-After "squaring" the headlights, what is required to take care of the issue in blinding oncoming traffic?
-Which bulb of this headlight unit is considered the high beam and low beam?
Outermost or innermost? One has a "cap" in front of the bulb and the other you can see the bulb clearly.

Answer
plug and play HID kits are illegal in every state. PERIOD. there isnt a single plug and play kit that is DOT or NHTSA approved.

i dont get whats so hard to understand about that. even if you bought those cheap "projector" headlight assemblies, they arent made to take a REAL HID bulb or they would have a bulb part number like D1R, D2S etc, not 9006 or H1. what 99% of the community doesnt understand is that even if you buy a "projector" headlight assembly its still illegal, and its still going to dazzle oncoming traffic. thats why real HID projector headlights cost around $400-$1000+ each, the projector unit inside alone costs $120+

take a look on theretrofitsource.com to see the price of quality parts

READ: http://www.danielsternlighting.com/tech/bulbs/Hid/conversions/conversions.html

this is directly from the NHTSA:
HID conversions result in two to three times the volume of light and potentially imprecise arc placement. Such conversions often result in beam patterns that behave nothing like the original filament beam pattern, cannot be reliably aimed, and have many times the permitted glare intensity. In informal conversations with persons who have tested such conversions, the light intensity on one at a point aimed toward oncoming drivers was 22 times the allowable intensity limit. Another lamp was more than 7 times too intense. With poor HID bulb and arc placement, the glare intensity could be significantly worse.
