Default EDM importers? I want glass h4 euro headlights.

Like it says.

Do you know of any European parts importers? Any good online euro junkyards?

I want to get a set of the leaded glass, H4 headlights. Any sources other than Ebay?
-edit-
I don't want the rare crx VT ones. I want the normal ones that would come in any 1.5-1.6 civic sedan, hatch, wagon, or crx in Europe.

I am a euro/jdm importer, but we are having a tuff time finding crx vtec parts, they are rare.

Ditto! I currently have a set of plastic JDM SiR headlights, but I would
much rather find a good set of EDM glass ones as well.

That's why. 5 bills for headlights? That's how much my engine costs! No thanks.

I know how to search classifieds and ebay.

I was just wondering if there are any good EDM importer sites. Or even just a good online junkyard that will ship to the states. Thanks.

Your not going to find the headlights for a bargain anywhere, CRX parts were and still are expensive in Europe, SETI doesnt even make that much money off parts. Europe isnt the same as Japan, where you can buy an old car like a CRX for a few hundred bucks, a mint CRX VT can fetch as much as 5-7k US, thus parts are expensive, not only are SETIs glass they are also LHD making them rarer and harder to find, you have to pay to play, if u cant afford them just use SiR plastic headlights u can find for less than 100 bucks, but they are plastic and meant for a RHD car. You aint going to find anyparts cheap on ebay unless some idiot is selling them, your best bet is to find someone selling CRX stuff in europe not knowing what they have, on UK ebay or german ebay, this is how i got my brand new SiR/VT bumper and lights for $130 US and gator got his new fogkit also, like i said before you have to pay to play, even new from the dealer if i remember correctly brand new headlights were like 300 euros. SETIs price are pretty much what the parts are worth, he even sold a VT cluster for 175 on here recently, they go for 275+ on ebay, hes a good seller id recommend him

Thank you for stealing my pics. If you're trying to go behind my back, atleast know what the **** you're talking about instead of dealing me the ******* black card.

Thanx a bunch for that BTW.

I'm hardly making anything off them and you're stabbing me in the back for going out of my way sending nice parts 5000 miles across the globe.

**** you.

seti don't get **** about it, he probably didn't realize that it's expensive, and not a high markup

If I could afford some edm ones, I'd wait it out for the power height adj. ones, but until then the h4h w/polarg's will do fine. I get enough compliments on its lighting already.

I do have to agree with you on that but I just have to brag, I went to scotland this past summer and lucked out when I went to the honda dealer in edinburgh. I got power folding mirrors, 89 taillights with fog light and full amber corners, VT wrap around bumper lenses and glass Vt headlights ith corners all for $100 US.


Just had to ***** out the pic and brag.

dealer? i don't believe you. a scrapper if you were very, very lucky

power folding mirrors were jdm only and so wouldn't be available at the dealers. iirc a headlight alone is £200 ($350) in the uk

Damn dude. You live in the netherlands. Take a muthafukin' bong hit, and chiiiilll. Maybe hit up a hooker, bust a few nuts.
You need to reeeeeelaaaaaaaax.

Like I said, I'm looking for edm glass headlights. I don't care if they are super rare VT crx lights. I just want H4 glass lights. I posted your pic, because people like to look at pics, and I thought more people would look, and give me links for junkyards.

I have turboed beater civic wagon. It has more dents, then clearcoat. OBVIOUSLY, I don't give two craps about MAD tiTE! yO! looks. My engine costs $500. I'm not gonna pay that much for headlights. Sorry if that offends your delicate sensiblities.

A little advice....some people like to do business with helpful, friendly people, not abrasive, arrogant toolboxes.

So your gonna put VT headlights on the wagon? That is gonna look dumb as hell and your going to have to cut your hood just to make them fit. IMO if you want H4 bulbs just go buy some and retrofit them in your existing headlights. Otherwise your just wasting your money.

I understand your sceptasicm but I assure you I got them from the dealer. They are obviously used, I guess I just lucked out. The mirrors aren't power folding just power adjustable, that was my mistake. Hopefully they will have some more stuff for me when I go back. They said they would try and get me more stuff. It might have also helped that my grandfather knows everyone there and brings his ATR in for service almost every other week.
Also I forgot to mention it but I also got to test drive the new CTR. MMMM you may hate me somemore if you like.

me just before they handed me the keys


money shot


My Gramps car. Its got *****



Anothe rmoney shot.



Sorry to get off topic

Yeah, my first post was confusing.. posting pics of the VTs....
i changed the pics to the ones I want: The normal EDM ones, that you would find in any 1.5/1.6 civic/crx. They fit US cars without issue. Just cut and splice wires. I know there has to be a shitload of 1.5carbed civics rusting away in junkyards over there. I want their headlights, and I don't want to pay $450.

The H4 bulbs are hi/lo in one bulb. The euro lights only have one bulb and reflector per side. The one reflector is bigger and supposed to work better, than the us 2 reflectors. I could do a h4 conversion, but it would look weird with only one bulb per side, hey?

I've been finding stuff on european Ebay

Nobody know any online euro junkyards??

Hell yes we have power adjusted mirrors in EDM also. But JDM and EDM does have many common parts.

Easier to find,...yes. Easy...no.
Power adjustability was optional in just a few countries. Holland not being one of them.
I might get a set og those. And I'll put them up then. Count on anything between 200 and 250, depending on where I need to get them from.

It's all good.
