Default HID lights questions!

hey guys, i have a USDM pwp cr-z base non hid equipped . and i was wondering what bulb specs i need to get for hid kit. in the manual it says Ds4 bulb for nonhid and H11 bulb for hid equipped cars. So am i suppose to get the Ds4 hid kit ?
sorry if this is a stupid question. but i just want to make sure.
please do correct me, so i can figure out what i should. thanks!

I believe you have it reversed. H11 would be for non HID and Ds4 is for Hid equiped.

Since yours is non HID, the kit you want to get is the H11 rebased Hid kit for your car. Your housing should not be setup for Ds4 setup.

Take time to aim the headlights once you are done with bulb swap. Don't be a reason why everyone hates "those blue headlights".

Im sure he'll be ok, non hid are projected, so it'll have a cut line like the Hid versions.
It's the ppl put them HID's into headlights that are both low and high beams without a shield which blinds ppl.

It's just as easy to screw up aiming of the projector, so actually going through the process and aiming the headlight is a must.

it's a different projector...

There's a reason why all of those kits are non-road-legal
