vs
Headlights HELIX or OEM Honda
i bought the blacked out version of the stock headlight, i liked them
Pros: liked them
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
I have helix headlights with drop in HID,s. I have had them for little over 2 years now and I really like them. Like Dion said though you need to be careful in adjusting them as the plastic inner piece will break, mine did so I took it apart and fixed it. I have adjusted them a few times since then with no problems, I was just more careful. The beam out put is very nice. Once I got them aimed correctly I never get flashed by on coming cars and I see the whole road a lot better.
Pros: nice beam output, see road better
Cons: plastic inner piece will break
I've got the Helix OEM reps on my car. My only gripe with them is that I maxed out the driver side height adjustment and once it stopped moving I didn't try to adjust it more...that's how the adjusters break. Light output is better them OEM...I find any ecode pattern is better then the DOT blob.
Pros: better light output
Cons: adjusters break easily
Taking the challenge, I bought the headlights to give them a whirl. The housings fit great in the front clip assembly. Body lines and overall fit + finish is spectacular for aftermarket lights. And the price is reasonable compared to hard to find and overly expensive OEM HIDs.
Pros: great fit and finish
Cons: aiming needs shimming
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
