So, I don't know if it has been discussed before or not but I was reading the SAAQ pamphlet http://www.saaq.gouv.qc.ca/publications/dossiers_speciaux/modifying_driving.pdf and under "Headlights, Lights and Reflectors" it says:

PROHIBITED

• Installing an HID headlight kit
- if the original sealed-beam headlight was not designed for that type of bulb

So if your car was not designed to have oem HIDs then you can't install a kit anymore!

En français: http://www.saaq.gouv.qc.ca/publications/dossiers_speciaux/modif_conduite.pdf

• Installer un ensemble de phares DHI (HID):
– si le bloc optique d’origine n’est pas conçu pour ce type d’ampoule.

I'm so happy civics and golfs no more HIDs hurting my eyes at night with huge glare, THANK GOD I've been asking for this in my prayers for 10 years.
Higher end car made with "projector type" headlights are still allowed to use HIDs no change here, so only the ti-counes are affected.






Also a side note, I know there's some threads about this but it clearly says coilovers lowered cars are allowed... You guys who got tickets cause of your drop should check this out...

ALLOWED

- Installing a coilover kit
 
Ne réjouissez pas trop vite, il va y en avoir des HID dans des réflecteurs encore pendant un bon 10 ans.

About fucking time. Those blue/purple or impossibly white HIDs on pickup trucks and Mazda 3s are more danger than anything else. They're also almost always aligned by FIFA referees.
 
Pas les matantes.

Les amateurs de performances et d’esthétique OEM oui. Il n'y avait rien de beau à avoir des spots light inégales et qui étaient assez puissant pour éclairer New Orlean durant Katrina. Maintenant, vous allez devoir sortir les bidoux pour avec un système rétro-fit avec projecteurs.
 
YES !!!! I was getting tired of that shit

Well as long as they have projectors headlights I don't care if they have 20,000k, if it's a beam light it's fine with me.

The other day I was driving and this civic was behind me with HUGE glare HID, my whole dash was light up by the car BEHIND me wtf... I seriously had trouble driving the car with this douchebag, even with the rear-view mirror turned off. And this happens kinda often.. so pissed lol I hope they give tickets to all of them.
 
je fais partie des ti-counes (vous pouvez quoter hors contexte) et j'ai un kit de HID sur mon Tacoma.

On verra bien si je me fais coller. Si oui j'installerait des fogs 2x plus puissants pour compenser les lumières de merde qui viennent d'origine sur le truck.
 
Great news, but then again, is it really?

Sure, it probably will be in most cases with Civics blasting 55W D2S bulbs in their halogen reflector housings, but I'm sure some people with legit projector retrofits will get hassled just because, like for anything else.

Another thing in there that is not permitted:
Replacing incandescent bulbs with LED bulbs
– where the lenses were not designed to be used with LED bulbs

Incoming tickets for license plate LEDs that nobody sees etc.

Also, what about the new Corollas with their OEM super blue LED headlamps and the glare they produce? Anyone else notice how annoying those are?

Edit: Just saw that Mickrob had posted about the f'n Corollas too, guess I'm not the only one!

same for me !! mais je sais que mes hid sur mon truck aveugle pas comme une civic !

si non, moi aussi sa va être des fog


depuis un moment j'ai enlever mes hid pour mettre des ampoules stock, et je trouve que sa éclaire pas du tout.
 
j'ai bien hâte de voir les policiers essayer de donner des tickets à tous le monde qui ont des Halo... d'origine ou non.
