Hids / Light swap

Does anyone know who sells a hid kit for the Fit? or a good bulb swap that looks hidish?

I gave John a set of HIDs I had for his Fit. I love the way they look. They don't offer the high beam option but for me that wasn't an issue since I never use high beams except when Im goofying off.

i love my hid. granite i only have the low's...but like someone else said, the only reason why i need high beams are when other people are either a. flashing me...or b. acting like idiots on the roads.


its plug and play with all the hid kits....you do have to take off the front bumper to get to the headlights, but thats only a 5 minute deal.


i got mine from xentech for 115 shipped with a 1 year warranty. i havnt had a problem with them yet. i actually had them on my other cars for about 3 years and they havnt burnt out yet.

but bosch has a hi-low bi xenon kit...that has the relay for the hibeams...
its about 250-300 for the kit. personally the hi beams arent that important since the hids are already bright. but its really up to you.


i rock the 5000k which is pure white. its very similar to the 4300k which is oem white.

Or you could do a retrofit for a true HID application into your stock housings. Then you won't have to worry about glare associated with HID kits put into regular projector lens. You should check out Smeister's work as his original project was the reason I asked him to do my set of lights. Here's the link. https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-...-retrofit.html
When I received the headlights, I was amazed at how clean it was.
