You know what, I am going to be honest, it really ticks me off when other drivers put in those insanely blue WANNABE HIDs! It literally blinds you! If I were a police officer, I would pull someone over so quickly it would make their head spin. Its so ghetto! I think sometimes fog lights are rediculous, they blind you too! You DO NOT need fog lights in the CITY.
 
Now, the Nissan maxima is the biggest offender of blinding lights, its bad!
 
Now, there is a difference between putting those bulbs in, and buying some nice
light bulbs that are more efficient, but don't blind traffic. I saw we were on this topic, and had to mention this.
 
If you really want HIDs than get one installed, the 08 accord sedan would look sharp with them, but I feel its going way over the top. Get the whole deal, HID, it'll be better than the bulb itself.
 
The 08 Coupe has upgraded lights, but the sedan did not, which is weird. Even the Camry, Sonata has them, But, I wouldn't call them full HID.

#7 of 10 Burning the housing? by discount80

All I want is a more pure white bulb? Why would this burn the housing? Its a sylvania 12v 55 w bulb. Any advice?

You might want to even call American honda, to be safe. They should be able to tell you.

Check vtec.net. There are forums there from Accord coupe owners who swapped to HID. Even some photos. Good luck.
