are those the same as the jdm one piece lights?? Doing the swap isn't hard, it just takes about an hour and a half from start to finish.

Do you mean JDM BB4 black housing headlights, or do you mean JDM integra type R headlamps.....becase ITR headlights won't fit without heavy modification.

How hard are they to install? I expect they should be the same as the original housing headlights.

A prelude isn't an Integra Type R, so it will take a lot of fabricating and cutting to get them to fit right.

Why should they install the same as prelude headlights, they are made for a ITR, not a prelude.

Well, I take it back. I just had a thought cuz the headlights do look very similar cuz a friend of mine did the same as I'm trying to do and all he had to do was cut the corner light space of the fenders to make the side of the headlights fit and also he got the OEM ITR front bumper to fit perfectly and I helped him do that.

I like the look of that... - the bodykit. But atleast it takes away the snorkles. Post some pics of your car when its done.

I have jdm dc2 lights on my 93 4ws. I will post pics when i get home tonight. it is alot of work, and by no means just bolts right in. Lots of cutting of the front end has to be done, you will have to modify the fender, and moe the coolant overflow reservor to make it look right. the inside of the bumper fits pretty good up to the headlights. I havnt worked on my much in about 4 months, but i am going to finish them soon, my car is in primer right now.

that made me laugh haha.

i think this is all pretty pointless. the only thing i like about the jdm dc2 headlights is that it comes with a projector. any1 know if that projector is strong enough for an hid setup? but as i said it think its all pretty pointless. with all the fabbing u have to do u may as well just do a retrofit on bb4 headlights
