Found these but they are for H4 housings only.... Looking for something that can be used in a zenki s14. I contacted the company directly and was told that while they don't make them for anything but H4 housings, there were similar products on the market from different makers. However I have been unable to find any using google.

Before the debate starts about retrofitting HID projectors, I am well aware and have read many threads about this. At the time I currently still use Silverstar halogens and it won't be until I pick up a pair of German housings that I will even consider HIDs but I would like to do a little research now.

While i'm on the topic though, I have also read about people who have modified the shielding on their HID bulbs to cut down on on-coming traffic glare. Anyone done this before? Anyone have pictures of modified shields or have any information on it? I know that there will still be a hot spot and the lights won't perform as well but i'm interested in hearing more about this modification.

Thanks....

Zenki housings are H4. What's the issue?
If you get projectors, that shield won't be necessary. And I dont' know what you're talking about modifying the reflector shield. I know that projector shields get modified to change the cutoff alot of times.

Disregard everything I've said and lock this thread.

I had asked the people over at casper directly and he specifically said it wouldn't work on my model car.

The 'modifying' I was talking about was in reference to the shielding that is on the actualy bulb...


Like I said though...F-this thread.... lock it or delete it!!!!

Thanks guys....

the h4 casper shields are very nice. a few honda owners use them on their hid 4300K kit. hopefully you use 4300K bulbs too.
