I'm looking to buy an HID kit for my 08 V and wanted some advice from other that have installed HID on an 07 or 08 as to where you mounted the ballasts/igniters? It looks like there is more room to work with on the passengers side headlight. If you have installed HID, which kit did you buy and what is the color temp?
Thanks!:D

I havent done anything yet. but for HID's its all about getting the lowest temp you can get. my brother has 4300's. and while that color temp should actually be yellow, they are a very nice clear white. not that lame blue of most all the aftermarket stuff. actual sunlight is in the 5000's stay away from anything higher than the 5000K's

Where did you buy your kit? do you have pix of the headlight front? Just got my V and want to put mods. :)

PnP HID kits are a terrible idea.
The halogen housing for the USDM CR-V is not designed for HID output. The glare is terrible and you will blind oncoming drivers....
