Default HID & LED reccommendations?

I just bought a 2006 Civic EX and I would like to purchase some high and low beam HID lamps for it as well as the lamp housing and also I would like to pick up some LED tail lights. Can anyone recommend some?

Looks good and I can wait on the LED tail lights. Do you know what kind of HID light that I need for my 06 Civic? Also, do I need to buy a set for the low beams and a set for the high beams or what? Thanks.

Looks like I need a 9006 for the low beams and 9005 for the high beams. Each kit is $399 here: http://www.xtralights.com/index.asp?...n=Custom&ID=15

Or maybe I can do better somewhere else? Any advice would be appreciated.

thats a good price..HIDs usually cost around the 350-450 doller range. With thos headlights, you might need a different balb size for them then the ones on your civic now. and for the high and low..im not really sure how that works for HID, but someone will come along soon who knows

I also found this: http://www.xtralights.com/index.asp?...OD&ProdID=1196

But note the "IMPORTANT: These headlights are originally designed to work with Halogen bulbs. Professional modifications are required if they are used with HID Xenon Conversion Kits and we are not responsible for any technical issues or damages to these products."

I wonder what "Professional modifications" they mean?

Does anyone know if this set of projectors will work with the 9006 and 9005 lights mentioned above? Looks like it's around $1197.95 shipped for all of it.

Then there is the $1000 for the leather interior I want. [&o]

I found the tail lights (no LED though, but you might be able to put LED bulbs in) http://www.xtralights.com/index.asp?...l=&strCompare=
And here is the blacked out head light assembly: http://www.xtralights.com/index.asp?...45&strCompare=

ya i wouldent bother getting the lights if it says that they dont work with HID, you just setting yourself up for a headace. But thos taillights are sweet, and you can get LED balbs to go in them like so

thos headlights look good to, see if you can get a deal if you buy headlights and the HID's to go with it from that site you posted, thos HIDs look sweet..they put them underwater!!
