headlight and radio problem on 95 db8
Alright my fellow Honda master techs... I have a 95 db8 with jdm Itr front end got Sony head unit.. was driving home from my dads house everything fine and dandy then all of a sudden radio turns off and on and my headlights start to flicker then turns off then on then my car sounds like It's bogging or misfiring, turn the headlights off for a quick second then turn it back on it stays on fine then starts to trip out again.... 
what ideas yall have for me to check out? BTW only happens when my headlights are on I'm guessing my alternator or the diodes inside of them took a dump or something... Anything will help

Check your main grounds, batt. cable clamp and post, batt. to chassis ground and chassis to engine ground, do not just eyeball them, redo, [clean] them.
Even if the grounds are not the problem, it is the first place you start your troubleshooting when you have electrical issues, it also can't hurt to redo the grounds on a 17 year old car.94
