This is the best I have. Its my old 00 hatch.

I just spliced into the parking lights. 184 bulbs

 

Opi's hatch:


and mine

 

 

Man i love those!!! Wont make me go faster, so I cant spend any money on it though!

 

stupid question.... what the hell are city lights?

 

It is the light that is alternate to the headlight bulbs inside of the JDM headlamps pictured above. It is the light that is on currently in the pictures, not the corner lamps.

 

Whats the point of city lights again?

 

ok, let me get this straight...
-its not the headlights (when you turn it on)...
-its not the corner lamp lights (orange)
-but it is the dim (day time running) lights that automatically turn on when you start your car? im confused sorry.

 

In the US these would be our daytime running lights. That is why I when they lights, some people just have them wired differently for their own preference because normally the city lights will be on and the corners will be off as well. When the headlights come on, the city lights turn off.

 

See post above

As confused as you believe you are, you are correct, with exception to them automatically turning on.

Yeah, we just wired ours to the parking lights so they don't just turn on automatically when the car is started. When we do want them on, the corners provide a little more light.

 

thanks for the pics I was wondering what they looked like...

now im curious as to what they look like and how they perform w/ the fogs at early night/morning...i know its pushing it but does anyone have pics of that (w/ headlights off)?

 

 

that is pushing it a tad...hahah you cant have parking/city lights and OEM fogs at the same time. OEM fogs will only work with the headlights on, unless you rewire it. Personally, I will not rewire what Honda spent millions in R and D wiring for me

 

so you guys have the city lights and the corners on all the time? damn wished i still had mine...damn h22 motor got in the way, the stupid alternator belt got in the way of the city lights so i had to part out with them... it was either the jdm headlights or the h22...

 

That isn't right, if you did wire up your city light the way JDM Honda wanted then you will be able to have foglights on with city lights, you can't really say OEM Honda because you have JDM headlamps or at least you posted JDM headlamps.

<u>Headlight switch</u> with foglights as well.

1st setting-city lights/no corner lamps/no headlights/option to turn on foglights
2nd setting-no city lights/no corner lamps/headlights/option to turn on foglights

EDIT: Wire them to a switch

Where did you get your JDM headlights and how much did you pay for them?

Well you made the right choice H22 = Our city lights are only on when we turn on the parking lights. Don't really like the idea of daytime running lights for some reason. I know what you mean about the tight fit of the lights, my ac lines had to be bent out of the way.

 

My city lights light up like the JDM OEM civic's do

 

Here, the corner lenses act as parking lights and turn signals. On a stock JDM honda, the city lights act as parking lights and the corner lenses and sidemarkers only act as turn signals. I know this is true for at least the EG civics.

 

well if its a 96-98 you can run the fogs separate from the heads...

thanks for all the pics everyone, i really appreciate it

 

Here? You mean in the United States where I am located as well ? I do realize how the corner lights function here, but this post was made specific in spec to the JDM headlamps so the USDM counterparts are not valid to the topic.

The model doesn't really make a difference, the difference is in the choice of wiring.


http://www.passwordjdm.com sells jdm headlights for $99.00 (92-95 civic specific on price)
