Default ...:: Integra Headlight question ::...

Situatuon: Got a 98-01 bumper for my 95, bumper came w/ cheap ebay angel eye headlights and I can't seem to get the low beam bulbs locked properly into place ( tabs line up, just won't turn and lock), I still have my 94-97 headlights, would it be possible to take the "cover/lense" (for lack of a better term) from the angel eyes and put it onto my 94-97 "base/housing", if so what would be the easiest way to remove and reseal the covers?

Obvious Solution: buy oem 98-01 headlights
problem: don't have the $ for them

Thanks

The lens should fit, but you may or may not be able to use the metal clips that are found on the 94-97 headlights. 98+ headlights have more plastic retaining tabs and no metal clips, so I don't know how well it would stay on.

Best way to get it apart is to heat up your oven, turn it off, then pop the headlight in there for a few minutes to soften up the adhesive.

Sounds good

I wasn't sure if the tabs would line up properly to secure the lens or how well the chrome housing from the 94-97s would fit in the 98-01 lens

Thanks
