Default Jdm EF8 1 Piece Civic Headlights fit EF8 Crx?

Would Jdm EF8 1 Piece Civic Headlights fit a Crx with EF8 bumper/hood?



Just wondering as I have the EF8 2 piece crx headlights and found these 1 piece Civic ones for cheap, they look way cleaner but I dont know if they will fit ...

also what does the filler panel do? will I need it?

thanks

The filer piece is for the 4 door civic where does lights come from. so no they will not fit you CRX, without alot of mods to the body.

ok thanks, I dont know anything about 4 door civics so didnt know they were off of one, the idiot told me they were off a ef8 hatch ...

I was thinking of buying them then and there but was suspicious over the filler panel thing

They dont fit.
Putting on different fenders wont work as they wont fit.
I'm pretty sure those arent even off an EF.....

The EF8 is clearly a hatchback.

To the OP, you can use those lights but you'll have to do some "cutting & pasting" with some sedan fenders and crx fenders. I say go for it, It'l probably look pretty good and be a little unique too.

Clearly he means Hatch as in Civic
I dont think he was askin if CRX headlights will fit a CRX
And I obviously know a CRX has a hatch.


EDIT:I suppose I worded my original statement awkwardly, but the kid said the guy was refering to EF8 as in a Civic Hatchback

EDIT EDIT:Or maybe I misinterpreted the kid's question

you should really elaborate more on what "FIT" means. the corner lights and hood line are way off. its a whole bunch of cutting and bondo to make it work.

or just weld the whole jdm sedan front to whatever car you want.

those are really the only two ways to successfuly do it.

i guess a third way would be treat it like a frontend swap from another gen of hatch and cut both fenders in half.

anyway way you look at it, its a shitload of work for not much payoff.

There used to be a tealish CRX with the one piece headlights. It was gutted out with a Mugen kit and carbon hood. Dont know what all he used to get them to fit, but it was ill. Unfortunately I lost all my pics of it.

The guy said they were off a jdm ef8 civic, when I said ef8 hatch I meant civic, so you are right.
I dont know much about civics and thought there would be an ef8 civic since theres an ef8 crx ... obviously not ... and obviously that guy is an idiot and didnt know what he was on about when he said they were off an ef8 civic ...

I think if I could get those lights to fit they would look really good but Im not touching those lights ... the fab work wouldnt be worth it ... and probably turn into a disaster


thanks.

It's no big deal for you to not know the EF differences, but if the guy is supposed to be dealing JDM parts he should know his product

FYI:
EF8 = CRX SiR
EF9 = Civic SiR

Yes none of which ever came with 1 peice headlights. They only came on EF 4 doors. The car on fiber images site had the 1-peice lights grafted in. Their websiite is now gay and doesn't work though. Here is a extremely small pic.

Why don't you get some EDM VT headlights? Glass front, el. adjustable, and they'd fit! You only need the corners for an EE/EF8.

They look like the JDM one piece from the 4 door.

yes thats what i was saying above, the one piece only came on sedans, they will not work on either a hatch OR crx without extensive body work, see my post above for the three mothods your could use to do it.

it has been done in the past, is it worth it? most def not imho.

And the hood
and the bumper

So really you'd need a full front end conversion

I was going to do this conversion. Then VIS copied the mugen bumper and I ended up doing the jdm front end. Now I have a set of one piece head lights that nobody wants. It would be alot of work but it would look awsome.
