@goofygamer thanks man . They do have a cutoff I'm just still attempting to adjust though . Hopefully tonight . &they're 5000k I went and swapped them out . If you look at my first post their hella blue compared to this photo lol .

@theskygun cool man if you are I wouldn't mind the extra hand ha .

@nemesiscbr thanks man . Yeah plan to once I get another paycheck lol . Congrats on the pending sale looks like someone will be extremely excited to have legit retros !

Also , friend of mind has some eBay halo headlights . I was wondering if I could swap the lens/lens cover onto my existing headlights . Could this increase the light output ?

I read hid lens increase light output ? Since his eBay lens is meant shouldn't it ? I know its not top of the line , but it isn't a halogen lens .

well i know that the ebay halo projector isn't really much better than stock, but the lens might help, since you have to crack them open its worth a try. the lens covers being clean will help though

Ebay lens covers are better then the oem ? If I swapped the lens would it make a difference ? ..is it even worth getting the ebay halo headlights for parts ?

For parts no, for looks of having clear lows and highs like nemesis, then sure. Personally I like my oem covers but if I had a cheap pair of eBay ones show up I'd consider buying them for parts.

No such thing as hid projectors made for integras. That's just a pos aftermarket china claim. It is possible to do a clear (projector) lens swap or mod and you'll get better output. Won't hold a candle to hid. I think initially you were just asking about the lens covers though. They are swappable. Fresh clear is nice but they are not as good quality (material) as oem. A new lens is better than your junk dirty old one of course.

Yes I am! I am adding to the thread (because I thought I already did...whoops) that the driver's side projector is worn a good bit on the reflector bowl. Can't tell too much of a difference with light output but there is a small difference. At the very least he could buy them from me and use the lenses. The output is still pretty good though, especially once you toss in a set of HIDs. I loved them lol

@swerve thanks yeah I peeped his fs thread .

@theskygun exactly . Looking to have a set just to swap lens covers and possibly use the lense and swap if I can . The ebay headlights will give me room to play pretty much .

@nemesiscbr yeah I knew that lol . I meant in general if the actual lens is made for legit hid wouldn't the technology meant for the ebay lens be vaguely similar ? &yeah that's the plan with the lens cover .

@thecrimsonstar dude I would but they're pretty steep in price lol . My friend is giving me his for $40 ha .

Well the output on these is better than most eBay lights I've noticed. Got a few friends with eBay projectors and their output is crap compared to mine. This pair went for $150 brand new lol

Not sure what you mean but there is no part of integra headlights that is made for hid period. Aftermarket or oem.

Right , but in terms of a car (not Integra) with OEM hids wouldn't the ebay brands try to match to hid standard lens ? In terms of the output since I'm getting cheapo ebay ones and I'm just using for parts .

Hard time explaining myself as you can see lol

Don't get any lens that has the multi surface angle plates in them. I have a set and it throws my hid light in ten directions . You want a cone style. These are just for reference not sure what they are actually called. Your factory lenses should have the cone style on the tegg.
