I am after aftermarket headlights but i cant find any in the uk, so i am thinking of importing a set to the uk.

just get civic type r headlights, they are readily available there ( i hope so) and they look better than the riciest projectors...just my .02 cents.....i think you will be happier with the ctr headlights....the smoked housing is to die for....(here at least....)

well he still hasn't said what year car it's for, CTR headlights won't work on 92-95 Civics.
But yeah, I can almost guarantee that your UK headlights are better than any aftermarket projectors out there (assuming your headlights conform to the European ECE standards). DOT standards aren't as high as ECE, and aftermarket projectors suck even compared to DOT OEM Civic headlights.

i once bought some headlights for a GTI from the uk, they are'nt good, you drive on the other side of the road, our lights are directed to the lower right, whereas yours are the lower left, i believe. either way they probably wont be legal(or safe).
