Acura HID Bulbs
Acura was one of the first auto
manufacturers to equip their vehicles with
HID lighting as a standard feature. Acura
introduced HID lighting on the 1999 Acura
TL which used HID-D2R bulbs. The lamps
on the 1999 TL remained the same from
1999 - 2003. If you have a 1999 - 2003 TL,
you should be on your second or third set of
(low beam) D2R bulbs by now. As the 1999
- 2003 TL ages, it will also need a
replacement ballast. We carry a suitable
replacement for the 1999 - 2003 Acura TL
ballast at our ballast page.
Acura started using projector headlamp
lenses in 2004 (first seen on "new" 2004
TL). When they switched to the newly
designed headlamp of the 2004 TL, Acura
began using the HID-D2S bulb, which has
no ceramic paint on the glass capsule of the
bulb because there is no need to reduce
ambient light due to the innate focusing
nature of the projector lens headlamp.
Our 5000K's D2R and D2S bulbs are ideal
factory replacement bulbs which will
produce light that closely resembles day
light. Our 6000K bulbs will produce a very
bright pure-white light. And our 8000K bulbs
will produce white light with a bluish hue
that we at Plasma Garage call "Xenon-Blue."
