I have 01 civic sedan with stock headlights and will add HID kit by end of the month.

How good are the projector halo lights from ebay? What the difference with other aftermarket lights? Its just for the look. Is there any real difference.

Can i add the HID kit to the halo lights?

you do know your output will be left to crap right? HID's with any type of aftermarket ebay projectors RUIN the lighting output. it also looks tacky IMO and is dangerous

your hid kit that you bought for your oem headlights will not fit the projector headlights. you will have to buy a new set of hids with the proper bulb size.

Really?? had no idea, yea the ebay halos do look cheap.

But whats the diff from 100 halos from ebay and other halos on other sites going for 300 and up?

Can anyone point out a site for after market lights halos or other types. Or any store in the NYC area.

thanks

p.s. thanks for the advice on the HID's

theyre just marked up. if you want a good look and good output, you want a retrofit.

Im sorry, whats a retrofit?

Curiouz_G

where you put in a single or bi xenon headlight assembly from another car into yours like from a TSX, TL, 330CI, M3, S2000, etc... the list goes on.
