Thanks, I think i'll ask them to check mine next service.

Yea, thanks. I'll do that.

Glad that this is not an isolated case like what I experience with my previous car.

go to a helpful Honda sc like bukit raja klang. I let them know, without much talking, they just check battery, then remark..and put me into the list.

Nice, I'll try with Global Amity Bangi first since I usually go there. If they give 1000 excuses I go somewhere else.

Anyone here got change their city headlights to Philips bulb?
any recommendation for which one is brighter and whiter?

will tell you that the whiter it goes for these halogen lamps, the less the intensity it is ... it will still look the same, but there is just no intensity making it hard to illuminate the roads at night ...

i have tried these so far

1) Philips Extreme Power, best if you just wanna change the stock bulbs - brighter but yellow still
2) Philips Crystal Vision, looks way whiter than Extreme Power but intensity not as much as the yellow bulbs
3) Osram Cool Intense Blue, very white as well like Crystal Vision, but lack intensity as well, using this currently with HID 4300k on the fog lamps, matches well, just the headlamps is not as intense as the HID, but color warmness is the same

Technically all above should be legal as still halogen, just the warmness is off white

The problem with my car is these bulbs burns off way too quick ... all lasting average 1 year plus

I am thinking of changing the headlamp, and retrofit projector headlamps and use HID ...

Anyone modded any projector into their headlamps? Feedback needed and from which modded is it done with?

I'm with you on this. I swapped mine with Osram Nightbreaker, but there's not much different from the stock. only slightly whiter but the intensity is the same. The best solution is to change to projector headlamp so the beam is more focused on the road. Not sure if there's an after-market one we can buy or need to mode..

what is the normal lifespan of the bulb? I'm still using the stock bulb, 4 years plus oredi.
kalau aftermarket lamp lifespan 1 year je, i better stick with the stock. huhu

Around 1 year

Mine burned one side already. Now using regular bulb. The left a bit whiter than the right. Hahaha.

Bro. Where did u do The fog lamps HID? How much is it?

i swapped out my first stock with extreme power ... lasted 1 year
then bought another pair which lasted 9 months
then change to crystal vision which lasted 7 months
then change to osram cib since 4 months ago

hahaha i suspected it was my wiring issue la ... coz burn that fast or during installation kena oil on the glass

u can do yours anywhere ...

mine was changed to HID because my fog lamp glass lens broke ... so change the fog lamp together with the HID as well ...

There is 3 options so far which i have checked

1) trxx7989
- have seen very good review for him, retrofit using MiniLite MH1 projector kits, shoul dbe bout less than 900 to complete the mod, that was quoted earlier this year ... now not sure

2) http://satugaprojector.blogspot.com/
- this guys has more samples on his website, and does more modding besides the projector ... bout 1250 for basic mod

3) Howiechoo's EA Accessories shop https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1366957
- this is the cheapest at around 700 mod with ccfl some more ...

I am still thinking of the 3 ...

Looks good https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&#entry37739639

Check out the satuga site ... very nice work there as well...

been trying to contact the first modder ... still no reply ...

Why do you guys take the hassle to change to after market bulbs when the original can last much longer & don't risk the chances of getting a summon

For much brighter night driving

Any also to annoy on coming cars with the much brighter headlights ler..

A proper fitted projector and HID with cut off line shouldn't blind the on coming cars.

Have you driven the car with stock headlamp and realize "eh my light turned on or not??", only to find out its already turned on but since its very faint you can't really tell. Hahaha.

bro if you have to ask this, then you dont need any mod on ur lights at all LOL ...

+9999

+99999999999999999

exactly ... aihhh next car buy with projector and 5000k and above headlamps ... means have to buy conti edy lo rite hahahaha

Yalor.. That's why i nvr considered getting aftermarket bulbs. Too much hassle and expensive to replace the bulbs. On top of that.. Maybe have to pay kopi fee once in awhile.

anyone notice the servicing price in the honda website is more detailed now?
