I prefer the 2nd set, and before 20 poeple jump on me, I don't give a **** about JDM or JDM style, I just think the 1st set is way too busy.

Id pick second set of headlights...just too much curves and **** inside the housing. If you want headlights sort of like the first ones do a retro fit off a audi or bimmer headlight...way nicer compared to those ones.

they are not for a 98.....they are shaped differently than the 00 model....

and if they were for a 98 model, i think more people would buy these instead of doing an entire 00 conversion

trust me they are 00

What site did you buy them from? and do they make them for a 93 civic hatch? I need new headlights and I like those. Or, does anyone here know where I can get headlights pretty similar to the top ones?

My dad was a moron and slammed my carbon fiber hood and ALMOST cracked it because of my hoodpins , but cracked my headlights instead oh , not to mention they were my xmas gift and he wont admit he did it and wont help pay for new headlights

I drove a car recently with the first set and they do light up the road damn good, for people that drive in conditions where that is critical could do worse

yeah ive seen cars with the cheap projectors, and it all depends on if you like the style i guess, cuz they worked very well, but im starting to see that their way overdone, to complicated
