Default What do you guys think about the 92-95 civic type r projectors?

I know that there is no such thing as a 92-95 CTR but these are on EBAY as that so that is what I called them.

I think that maybe with a C/F hood ,C/F duckbill spoiler, a C/F front lip and some high beam and low beam H.I.D's they would look alright. what is your opinions?

no no no
the bulbs in those look like those from a flashlight...
DO NOT BUY THESE
please, get Denji projectors at least....
HID bulbs will most likely NOT fit in the CTR lights you pointed to.........

and the way those look with no clear GLASS cover over the entire housing,, it looks horrid. Liek an APC cheap easily-broken set of projectors like the ones on my friends ex-girlfriends EK, the lenses broke and she is stuck with having to buy new headlights, fawkin great

i had projector lights a year ago. everyone liked it no one hated it. this is not the CF one though. one thing though, when a bulb died i had to take off my bumper to change the bulbs.. pain in the ***.

Looks to me like they used normal automotive headlight bulbs.

But first of all, those are not projectors. They're just free-form reflector-type housings. And what that guy said about them having a "magnifying glass", oh man.

Second, if those (or any aftermarket headlight) uses H3 bulbs, most likely the light output will suck. H3 bulbs do not put out a very good beam pattern. My friend used to have the Denji projectors on his Civic, and he had to use 100W H3 bulbs to get any kind of useful light out of them. You should just stay with stock if you want functionality. If you want looks get the Denji projectors (chrome or black housing). Just don't get those.
