Guys I have had a H.I.D 9006 Kit on my NSX for some time now.
but it takes about 5-6 seconds to reach the full HID burn.
now I have been reading about people that have rebased the D2S bulbs to fit the 9006 Housing and they are very expensive
I have seen a pair run close to 1200 bucks, No thanks
So I purchased an expensive set from an Online store waiting waiting man I should have a tracking number by now checked my Paypal and the guy refunded my cash back, I am out of the states will be back in a few months???
are you kidding me? I said screw it I will make one myself.
and everyone knows I love OEM
so here is the steps to convert a D2S bulb to fit perfectly into a 9006 Socket. get ready for the mod of the year.
parts you need.
2 H.I.D ballast from a 2004-2008 Acura TL
2 H.I.D D2S Bulbs
2 D2S Igniters
2 burned out 9006 Bulbs
step one
you need to grind off the surround of the D2S bulb so its nice and smooth but do not grind off the little stubs those are needed
for the igniters
you need to do this to both D2S bulbs
then you need to get 2 9006 bulbs and break the bulb and pull out the guts till you get this
you need to grind both side so you get a nice 9006 surround, I used a grinding wheel made the job go by very fast, grinded down everything in about 6 seconds
then you need to take these 2 surrounds and drill a hole in them so the head of the D2S bulb will fit into the newly made retro surround you just made.
I had trouble with making the D2S bulb fit so I used a knife to carve the hole I drilled a little bigger intill it fit like a glove. I then touched the outter housing with a soildering iron to melt the plactic in place.
now you will notice the 9006 surround has a smaller tip thats the top of the 9006 bulb.
you will notice the D2S bulb has a wire running on the outside of the bulb thats the bottom so when you put the new surround on the D2S bulb note this and turn it correctly then melt and seal
now insert your new D2S bulbs into your D2S igniters and go install into your NSX 9006 socket
the reason I did this is My 2008 Acura TL typeS H.I.Ds are so fast they instantly
get to burn temp in like 1 second.
the NSX desrves the best and it still has all OEM Acura/Honda parts.
congrats you just REBASED a D2S bulb to 9006
any questions just ask.
