Does anyone on ht know good where I can order some quality headlights for my hatch? I hate the plastic oem ones that break and oxidize all the time. I'm trying to find a glass and black tinted one that would look nice

Honda?

Glass? Maybe EDM but I doubt they were glass housings.

OEM is your best bet.

All plastic, glass probably got expensive. Never seen a plastic headlight break unless they're old af(gettin hit by the elements) or you're driving behind a dump truck that has alot of loose items flying off the truck....

Yeah. They are all plastic. Glass was too expensive, not as safe in a collision, and not as manufacturable, so it died.

Aftermarket ones are all garbage. Spring for new OEM, you will spend more money but you won’t end up disappointed.

Even going to the junkyard, or eBay, and cleaning it up with the right sand paper, is supposedly much better than a new aftermarket one.

If you are looking for the very best sets you can purchase, you want to purchase European market headlights. Used or new

Japanese market ones work fine but are aimed to illuminate dominatly left.

Aftermarket oem style are ok, however they lack the alignment bubbles amd usually require finess to get decent light aiming

Ehh, disagree. Once they get to the point that you need to sand and polish them, they just become another maintenance item. You’ll find yourself having to redo it several times a year at an accelerating rate.

Best is to bite the bullet, but new oem, and keep them protected. Clear them, Lamin-x them, etc.

3m's latest kit actually has a clearcoat wipe. pretty neat.

I followed ChrisFix and Ammo Nyc's videos, which includes spraying that clear gloss can, and my Integra's original headlights are still clear, instead of yellowish, after 15 months.
