Just do the single beam. Im asssuming that the bi beam is for low beam andbrights. You dont need HID's for your brights. I have my stock brights still.My car came with the fog lights from the dealer. I just upgraded themwith a conversion kit. You can add the dealer foglights and then convert to HID or put your own HID foglights. Any car stereo shop can install the lights for you. It is a fairly easy install for anyone who has a clue what they are doing. You dont have to buy xenon you can buy other brands also. Just make sure you use a reputable shop and get a warranty from them. I personally would buy the kit from the shop that installs them.My shop gave me a 1 year warranty on the ballasts, bulbs, and labor. I paid $250 installed for each kit. I bought 2 kits one for the headlights, 1 for the fogs. I originally just did the headlights, but i didnt like the difference between the HID's in the headlights and the Halogens in the FOG lights. Now everything matches the same.

You have to find out what type stock bulb the accord uses in the headlights. You get the HID kit based on that type of bulb fitting. The shop I took the car too took care of all that for me so im not sure what bulb type is stock for this car. I just told them what brightness I wanted which i went with the 6000k kit. Most kits will fit right in there. Just take it to a shop and let them do everything. It is not complicated. They make kits that will fit most cars new or old. Alot of cars use the same types of bulbs. Not a big deal.

Yeah i just learned... it is infact H11. Btw I hear from some places that you lose your hi-beam capabilities if you get xenons... is that true?

Or was that what you were talking about with "brights", jblaust?

Pardon me again for my lack of knowledge on car jargon lol.

You dont loose your high beams aka "brights". The High beam is a seperate bulb. I still have high beams but they are the stock Halogens. No point on spending $250 for HID high beams you will probably rarely use or need.
