I doubt it. Most aftermarket projectors have poor quality optics and design. It would be a waste of time and money (200 for headlights, 270 for HID kit). You can get a decent set of projectors for less than 200 used on hidplanet, bulbs and ballasts for maybe 300, and if you do the work yourself after studying what others have done, voila, retrofit.

Otherwise cusomlightz.com has done GREAT retros on the new civics for board members here, but they run more expensive, but look great.

 

1. Remove bumper.
2. Remove headlights.

Its kind of hard to walk you through it but the bumper is attached via a series of clips and screws ... once you've got that off you can unbolt and disconnect the headlights.


^^ Headlights posted above FTLBT

 

How much u paid for the projectors and what site u got them from....?

 

it was the projector headlight i was wondering about but now i have another question, can then handle hid conversion, and what are ballastes or how ever you spell that

When i get tsx projectors, i sell them at 140 shipped
no1 can beat my price! =]
but yeah HIDplanet.com has lots of information

 

can you get anymore?

 

ebay, $174 new

 

Well I have these installed on my 2 dr Fiji Blue SI, which is in the shop getting fixed. (Anyone that remembers the thread, my car was not totalled, it was actually *only* $10,700 in damages, and no frame damage). I'd take some pictures, but obviously I can't.

Basically, take off the front bumper, which isn't hard at all. Don't be scared, just take out all the pop outs and the phililips heads in the fender and then it pulls off. Installing them is pretty self explanatory and the bulbs just pop in. As for the 3 little LED lights (and the LED Halos), you have to wire those in yourself. I spliced them into my parking lights. That way they are on anytime my lights (or parking lights) are on, except for the DRLs.

 

thanx a bunch i'll give it a try

 

headlights are on and work, but how do i wire them so that the led and halos are my running lights and yet my high beams are still correct?
