Default CTR headlight question

I got a set of 99-00 CTR headlights, along with the lights I recieved the city light bulb/socket. These headlights are going to be put on my Ek soon, but what do I do about the city lights? I dont have the plugs for the city light so how do I use it? I noticed the new preludes have city lights are the plugs the same as the CTR city lights? Are there any city light kits for sale?

Well I have a 96 civic hatch and I just got Brand new JDM OEM Civic Type R smoked headlights, and for my city lights I just went to my local pick and pull junk yard and looked for hondas, and I got the wiring harness with sockets from any honda with a 194/168 bulb socket. And the wiring harness just pluged right in to the city light sockets that came with the headlights. You have to kinda look at your city light socket and try the 194/168 harness in it, but honda has two different 194/168 sockets/wirring harness so just play around until the right one fits the socket. Well I hope you can understand what I am saying, because I made that sound way harder than it is. Later, Jordan.

So your using the 94+ integra front parking light plugs with the JDM CTR city light bulb and socket? If thats the case then wiring shouldnt be a problem right, all I have to do is snip snip and tap the "integra parking light plugs" with my parking lamp wires and the city lights should work? If im wrong please correct me also any other cars carrying these plugs that fit city lights besides preludes?

Well I did this about six or five weeks ago, and for my 96 civic I wired them up to the red, and black wires in the side marker/turn signal. The side marker/turn signal only has three wires for it on the 96-00 civics(not sure for others), so just leave the green wire alone and you sould be fine when you tap in to the wirring, because I don't think you would want them to blink. Hope this helps you out.

So the wires for the city lights should be red and black also? I still have to dig through a junk yard for these "city light" plugs.
