another pic request: civic headlight conversion
Monday, March 27, 2006 12:44 PM
ok, Ive been searching for quite some time already, but I cant seem to find this. I know there was one cav with the 01 civic headlight conversion. I think it was a purple color? Im thinking of doing this conversion, but im not sure yet though.

what do u guys think? if not, what other headlights do u guys recommend that would sort of fit the 03 + cav style front? I know nothing is really gonna just "fit", but im looking for something similar in size to our headlights, or just a little bigger/smaller.

That wouldn't be bad, but what about just doing projectors?

If you're gonna change the headlights change the tails too.

hmm... do any of u guys know where I can get better pics of that car? I tried the website he has listed but theres only like 2, and its the same ones that are in his registry. maybe he has a cardomain page? or has he posted in the photos and media forum better pics?

Im sorry but that looks bad IMO.

If you are set on civic lights do the 99-00 headlights like so...


still not a fan, but it looks better.

ok, now that I see it, I dont really think I wanna do this anymore. what do u guys think of cobalt headlights? or just keeping the cav headlights and doing a tail light conversion only?

I really like the 00 civic headlights posted above! I think the 02 ones on the Soundspeed car look pretty @!#$ty, but the older oens look perfect!

If you were to do some minor things (DIFFERENT COLOR SCHEME, 95-02 tails, lose the unnessacary scoops) to your car it would look good.

well I think I like these better:



these are the 04-05 civic headlights. theyre not as "flat" in the corner where they meet the fender as the 01-03 ones.

these are the 01 - 03 ones for comparison.



so instead of just stopping flat at the fender, they would go in.

I already measured the 01 headlights from a friend on to my car, looks like they would fit with no MAJOR work, I would just need to cut into my fenders, and add a piece top my hood (im thinking of buying a civic hood and working from there, if its the same width of the cav hood, it might be even easier to mate it with my cav hood ).

these look pretty similar to the 01 headlights.

Im gonna measure the civic hood this weekend on my car, I might get lucky and it might be the same width

Honestly, I think the best looking headlight conversion i've seen on a cavy was using
Nissan Slivia headlamps. These were the s15 model, 99 and up, not produced in north america, but you can find them online for sale. They look badass, and seem to fit the openings quite well. Just my 2 cents.....

^^yea i thought about those. but it would be easier if I still had my 95-99 headlights. If I were to do that, It would mean I would have to buy a hood and bumper, since the lights are smaller. I need something bigger, or about the size of the 03 cav lights, this way I can just cut into the body, instead of adding. of course, ill still need to add a few things here and there.

Im also thinking about doing the RSX headlights, but I dont know, this is HUGE dilemma.
