I just sent an email to OBDmart on eBay, and depending on what he says, I'll update.

I'm getting HIDs for my Civic and my bike at the same time, and I think im just gonna order the H7s for the F4i headlights, and see if they'll fit in the F3 housing...

Your 97 is a H4 kit, I just put a DDM tuning on my bike last week. Its been raining here for the last 12 of 14 days and I took my 1st night ride last night. The HID kit is worth every penny! I couldn't figure out how to get the High beam function working tho. I also made a call to the State Patrol to see what bulbs are legal in my area. They officer told me if it has even a tint of blue he'll pull me over, so I went w/ a 5k kit.

Well ****... so If I buy the kit for the H4 (for my F3) then that kit wont fit on my F4i kit...

How hard would it be to make the H7 fit in the H4 housing?

On a side note, I need mirrors that will fit on an F3, and F4i, I found these:

Those mirrors look sick and damn cheap, the should mount on there fine right???

Post up what you do with your headlight situation, im kinda in the same boat, need new lights and mirrors.

Sure will, I ordered the mirrors already, and I'm talking to a guy about the HIDs so I'll let you all know what ends up happening...

If you ask nicely i can do a write up on how to install and HID kit on the F3. I took lots of pics but haven't gotten around to doing it.

DDM tuning FTW!! I installed the 35W 6K kit last month and they are AWESOME! $35+ shipping (approx $12) for the slim ballast, WITH life time warranty. Wish I would have went with the 55W kit but i was more worried about them being too bright and not having enough cut off.

DDM tuning slim ballast 35W 6K = $48 shipped


as far as "making bulbs fit" just look at how each type of bulb mounts and is shaped.

2nd!

I'm buying the 5000k H7 55w. I'm going to put an F4i front end on it within the next couple months, so I don't want the H4 for the F3... but I am going to try to figure out a way to make the H7 bulb fit in the H4 housing...

There is a write up somewhere on here that tells you how to do it. I will see if I can find it.
