Default One piece headlights fitment ?'s

I am looking to pick up some one piece headlights off ebay. I need to replace the one's I got with the car and also get corner lights at the same time.

Do they mount the same way as the stockers? Do they need to rewired different from the stock lights?

Here are the one's I am looking at getting in a few months. Anyone have them? Have any problems with them?

Yes they are mounted the same like OE lights.
Are you aware those are fake? They're not true JDM. And there is a description on the picture that they're compatible with 9006 and 9005 bulbs, so you don't have to modify anything.

I know they are supposed to fit OEM, and I am also aware they are fake, what I wanna know is there quality. Are they glass? Do they actually fit well. How well do they function and look when mounted on a car.

I don't care about JDM, I'll leave that to people that want to spend more money on parts b/c they are from Japan.

I just want to know how they last. Are they of good quality or crap? And don't feed me some BS that b/c they aren't JDM they are not good.

i have the jdm headlights.....but i didn't buy them for the "jdm"

i bought them for the 1pc look obiviously.....but the reason i got them instead of ebay is the oem honda quality

they also have lines across the front that continue the flow of the nostrils.....the ebay ones do not

guess it's really up to you, but for a few bucks more i would choose oem quality and styling

I don't even know if the nostrils are still on my bumper or whatever they are attached to. The guy I got the car from took the bumper and support and fenders off when he trailered it here and hasn't sent me the hardware in a month.

I got the real JDMs about 5 years for the One Piece look.

I think they add a lot of style to the car, even makes it look a newer IMO.

My only complaint is that they are not as bright as my USDM's were, so I got the fogs too. I have to look out for deer and other animals at night because I live and go to school in the middle of the woods.

I will have to look into this. I did not know that. I went off of some old write up from another prelude website. Thank you.
