fellow orlando guy here.....

let me be the first to say you are going to get flammed to hell for posting this.

really this is more of a performance oriented web-site. We're more concerned with going fast than bling, bling. There is an appearance/cosmetic part where you would post this stuff.

with that being said, here's my two cents. DO NOT buy these, the light output will probably suck worse than your original headlights.

Either put the elbow grease into it and clean your original headlights with some 3m rubbing compound or buy a set of headlights like these (or find a set of originals for cheap from egay or something) and retro in a set of projectors. Yes its time consuming, yes its expensive, but it is worth it.

I bought a set of tyc projectors for my EG civic and put Euro Golf IV HID projectors into them, first attempt and they look marvelous. Do some searches and you will come across my pictures.

Check out HIDplanet.com for all your HID questions....don't ask here...this site is about honda's going fast...NOT HID or shitty headlights.

i sadly once had these on my ej8, the driver side leaked terribly and soon had a green/yellow film on the inside of the lense, also they used a small bulb and were dimmer than the stock headlights. when i put in my black housing "type-r" lights i was like holy **** i can see.
