Best headlight upgrades?

Hey all,

I'm new to the forum and I'm getting a 2002 RSX Type-S this week. It currently has stock headlights with some pretty heavy oxidation on the outside. I am going to replace the headlights, but I am torn between staying with the halogens or upgrading to HIDs. Can anyone recommend some HIDs that are reliable and don't overheat and stop working after a few months? I'm not a fan of the chrome headlights, so the black would be preferred.

These are the halogens I am considering:

TIA!

If the outside of the headlights are just yellowed, you could try the Philips Headlight Restoration Kit on them. It's inexpensive and can make a big difference on the lenses. If they are cracked though and you want to replace the headlight housings, we have a variety of options for the RSX.
