Default CRX aftermarket headlights

Whats up everyone, I am looking for alittle guidance/advice on some after market headlights. In particular does any one know the brand Sprinter Power?? they make after market parts. being offered reasonable price deal, any feedback is appreaciated. Or does any one know of any aftermarket brand that whose housing light sysmtem allows the user to use his old light conncectors which basically twist-on and lock into place vs. connecting and being forced to use the after market light bulbs.. Please reply as soon..

Honda uses it's own connectors on the lights...so whatever brand you choose, you probably need to convert and cut the wiring. I had to do it on my sonar projectors.

Sorry man.

Thanks SETI20
How did your sonar brand work out?
I understand that there are some aftermarket brands that do cater to the twist and lock style of stock honda lighting, but at the same time you get the Angel Eye/halo eye look out of it.THis is what I am looking for . any feed back from any one is welcomed

i don't think there is any halo headlight out there that uses stock bulbs, mine have h1's for both high/low beams, and well.. they suck, but the headlights look good.

how is the light pattern/spread on those? I need something to beef up my stocks. I have driving lights, but i know they glare into other drivers eyes.

Has anyone tried to mount s2k projectors into ^^ type of housing? or do those shown above already have projectors in them?


<-- still a noob

Its funny, but i actually have an APC part on my car. The projector headlight set which is a lot like OEM and has glass lenes which look very nice and seem to be good quality. The bulbs are still the stock 9006 for low and 9005 for high meaning no modification to the wiring unless you wire in an HID kit.

They are much better than stock. I removed them in favor for the stock look.

The black housing only come in plastic case and most are h3 bulbs which have really bad pattern.
