the high beams is own bulbs. It is up to you if you want to do HID or not. Dont make them tint yellow because you got fogs(corner lights) already. Old cars use those lights for fog lights but not the sc, it was meant to be high beams to aim high, not low.

Put the HID's in the headlights and leave the high beams with halogen bulbs, if you want an improvement get some MTEC bulbs, they are about $20 a set. You do not want HID's in the high beam because they take time to warm up. Don't do the yellow high beams itll look like crap, leave that gayness to the honda crowd.
