wonderin if the lens of the headlights are plastic or glass

 

glass

 

The JDM lights I had were plastic, had no bulbs or plugs, so I sold them back, and got my stock ones back

 

plastic and they are much lighter then the usdm ones.

 

Really? damn dude I thought they were glass like USDM. Sorry for the bad info.

 

if you go to g2ic.com under teg tips, look at renewing jdm one-piece headlights, they show you how to sand them and re-finish the plastic.

no problem

 

yep, plastic. g2ic refinishing info is key. works like a charm!

 

and u have to get weird bulbs i hear

 

but i could be wrong

 

The lights use H4H bulbs, which aren't available to my knowledge in the US (at least I can't find them anywhere). You can however, convert H4 bulbs to work, info on that is on the g2ic.com site. Due to a stripped screw, I couldn't get the fog light cover off to look and see what fog light bulbs they use.

 

h4h for the main light, h3 for the fog light. and they are plastic. much lighter, but not legal for us road use. but they look realy good, so who cares.

 

why not legal???

he's right lol....he is speaking about the DA, and is that your car? It's, nice, but it doesn't belong in this thread.

 

jdm is plastic. be careful if you polish them with a buffer or you can melt it and put deep scratches into it

The cutoff is flipped for right hand drive, so they will produce more glare to oncomming traffic. Also, US requires all cars to have an amber front side reflector, and amber side marker light, Japan does not.

But aside from that, the real reason is, if it didn't come stock on the car, and an aftermarket company hasn't spent $$$ getting the part certified, its not legal to use.

The real question is, will the cops care though? If you don't put in a HID kit, and keep normal wattage bulbs in it, the glare won't be that bad, and you can always adjust them down a slight bit to help that out. Its been over a year since I had side reflectors in the front, but I did keep the marker bulb amber.

 

pretty much what he said. xcept you realy dont have to adjust em too much. mine were fine when i put em in. plus i switched to the amber bulbs to keep the law happy.

Although, On g2ic.com there is a DA with a converted G3 frontend. And wow does it look good.

Anyway, I plan on getting the jdm 1 peice but untill then I might do the 9004-9007 conversion
