Spec-D Buyers Beware!


Purchased these chrome HID/LED headlights for my 2006 Honda Accord…the installation was easy and you can find video and PDF installation online….HOWEVER I have had nothing but problems 6-8months after installation…they claim to be water proof however I have had corrosion issues on the negative terminals twice already…I have rewired and taped (electrical) twice and still lights go out…the aesthetics are the only positive aspect of Spec-D headlights…BUT since the lights constantly go out its really not worth the headache!
In addition…the Spec-D headlamps take H1 bulbs (cheap if you ask me)…the OEM Honda Accord bulbs/plugs are made for H11…meaning you have to switch out the OEM plugs with H1 compatible plugs NOT included.
Overall in hindsight I would NOT have purchased these headlights…poor quality big headache! What I should have don’t was stick with the OEM headlamps and just installed HID kit...you live and learn.  
Beware!!! Looks great performs terrible!
