Default Looking for new headlights

to replace the crappy factory garbage on my 92 EX. Are there any ones in particular that you guys prefer like the projector type and if so, what brand. TIA

perhaps you feel that the factory lights are more than adequate, I however do not, I actually like to see where I'm going

Try aiming your lights first. Civics in fact have decent lighting. Projectors in general will be crappier.

And stay away from blue bulbs if you want to see where you're going!

hmmm, that sucks, I was looking for something like the e-code's I have on the VW. Is there really nothing out there? And don't worry about the bulbs, I'll pass there

Try re-aiming your headlights and using "30%" bulbs from Sylvania, Philips, or GE. They are labeled as "High Output" bulbs and are typically marked as "30% brighter." They are street legal clear bulbs. However, bulb life is typically shorter than standard and long life bulbs.
