If you had looked there, you'd see a link to a car on cardomain.com that is using it.

He doesn't mention changing his front end to JDM.

If you look at this thread, https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...ts-thread.html

They don't mention the headlight being needed to convert to a "JDM Spec" Fit... which would indicate that the headlights are the same for both JDM and USDM. The taillights already are (in terms of fitment), since other members having been swapping theirs (USDM to JDM)... for example https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...il-lights.html

No I didn't see. They do look the same, the part numbers are different though... if that matters. I think i might try the ones at coolcarpartsonline.com since someone has successfully used them. Also cause they are going for $200 less then DashZ. I can live with making minor adjustments for $220. Thanks for the heads up.

I like the headlights, alot but could do w/o the LEDs in there, its a bit of overkill but everything else is NICE:cool:

Aesthetic opinions aside, again, if you read the other thread... you'd see that if I go the HID route, I WOULD retrofit it with actual HID projectors (unless by some chance that low beam projector is one already, doubt it). For the time being, my thought is first, get my car... decide whether chrome or blacked out looks better on an SSM... put the headlight with normal halogens. And if it's compatible with HIDs (I mean if it's an actual HID projector) pop in one HID for low beam... or do the retrofit (namely the Mini Morimotos from TRS). And yes, the goal will be dual BiXenons (two per side). But, one step at a time for me.

So there was a thread with more information that you didn't provide a link to that you just magically expected me to stumble across and read?

Then what do you call my very first line I typed as a response Prplrain?

https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-...halo-hids.html <- that's a link.

I fail to see where you're going with this? My original response was not to you, but to the OP. OP did not link to another thread, OP linked to an outside site asking if a set of lights would fit his car.

Goobers, Thanks for that link man, I don't know why they are so different in price cuase they look exactly the same.

I Photoshoped them on my car (09 BBP) and I don't think I want them. I'm going to get black wheels..."i think" and I just don't want to black everything out. And the chrome, look like they might be too chromeish...

Hummmmmmmmm

As for your original, you mentioned HID, effectively taking the topic off on a tangent, while as far as I knew, the OP was only interested in looks and did not mention HIDs. Aesthetic is too subjective of a thing.

Unfortunately, I will acknowledge one quite important fact... unless you mention the name of the person you are talking to (or quote them)... it's very hard to know who you ARE responding to. Aside from not mentioning HIDs, the OP hasn't even responded since starting this thread, so who knows what going on there.

That being said, I had thought that you were possibly responding to me also, considering that I, like the OP, have an interest in this headlight housing.



Yeah, Black everything is leaning towards that "Stealth" ricer look (which has it's own negative topic, https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/othe...k-same-me.html).

And I also agree the Chrome is a bit much for me. I guess, I'll go with the blacked out since I will be getting an SSM, though I think that still looks a bit off. I haven't seen any other dual headlights. Any other not OE housing I've seen are retrofits with one projector in place of the one big reflector. I personally think that's an odd look too. But hey, some people obviously like it.

Yeah, I had read that thread, I never really liked that look. I probably never saw it done well.

I think these lights (in black) look better on the lighter colored cars. It goes well with the other dark shapes made by the styling of the front end of the car. Let me know how it goes if you get them, I think that would look nice.
Have you seen these?

I quoted you because you quoted my post, my original response to the OP, so I was simply replying to you.

Take a look at the thread topic title. "HID projectors"
