i bought some new headlights sense mine went bad and burnt out. i went up to my local import shop. i didnt know 92-95 civics had H4 head light bulbs.

i decided to go with NOKYA Artic White pro halogens stage 2 7000K. their 100-120W. so i had to buy the NOKYA wiring harnesses. these lights are so bright. my pictures dont do justice. theirs a link to the pictures at the bottom. I put 2 of the three wires in the wrong connectors so my brights are on my low beam option. so i have to drive with my brights on to keep from blinding people. im to lazy to take the 30sec and change it. plus its cold as **** out side.

these bulbs are good for the price i piad for them. The harness came with the bulbs for only 4 bucks more. i didnt pay more then 30 bucks. which is good becuase i have enough to get my spoiler put on durning this week.

the corner lenses are dim and kinda look yellow tinted. so i firgured if i put some hyper whites or just newer bulbs in the lenses it wont look so bad. the head lights make them look dull.

no no no
no hyperwhites
not only is that stupid...its illegal

you MUST have regular bulbs (no color=kinda yellow), or amber, or yellow in the front.
Just get some amber bulbs and call it a day...

were do you live?

here in IA, we can have any color turning light. as long as its not red or blue. which means i can have clear bulbs. plus my head lights are hyper whites aka artic white.

headlights are different than turning lights...this isnt a state thing...its national
hyper-whites are concidered blue by many

but hey, do whatever
its your ride and your consequences...I told you and Im not gonna get into this discussion again

yes Im somewhat of an ass today...you would be too if you had to take 30 online tests

i figured out why the pictures came out so bad. the high beams were on and reflected the flash back on to the car. the first picture has the flash on.

Ill have new ones up in a couple more days. The digi cam is at college.
