Projection Headlights.
 
I was thinking of changing my stock tailights on a '94 Accord to some projection headlights.

What do you guys think would look better? The two beam, or three beam? and why?

thanks. peace

personally i like the look but the light output is soo messed.. i get more light comming out of my regular headlights....
but dont get me wrong.. they look real good.. but at night i dont like em...

best headlights by far is getting the JDM one piece or go R34 headlight conversion... now that would be sweeeeeet... too bad the lights are nasty expensive tho:crazy:

yah those one piece ones are sweet.

how bad is the lighting at night?

I think that you should get whatever you think looks best... who cares what we think? But like azn_nite_ryder said, light output is seriously reduced...

If you're gonna be driving much at night, I wouldn't recommend simply buying what you think looks good...I'd recommend having a well-functioning light system. I've blown a tire before because I couldn't see something in the road because my lights weren't good enough (in my Volvo, not the Honda). But it really is your call.

What's the R34 conversion?

Also...does anybody know of JDMs for the 6th gen? I haven't seen them in all the looking around I've done so far.

Also, does anybody know if the HID lights in the Acuras are compatable with the 6th gen sedan? They look pretty similar, but I'm not sure if they're the same dimensions and have the same mount points as the Accord.

i was also wondering, for the three beam, what is the the most inner light's purpose? cause on a stock, it's just two bulbs, low beam and high beam.... hmmm??

thanks

exactly do what you like to your car... dont matter what we all think.. just giving only our 2cents...

the r34 conversion is the skyline headlights... very similar to the ones of the new gen nissan 200sx but its a lot sleeker... i'll post a pic if i find one....

as for the 3 projector one.... the inner 3 bulb is like a running light when you have your nite beams on.... you know how the newer preludes have a small bulb that lights up at nite... its the same thing its just that this one is more visible cuz its separate

and yes they they do have jdm 6th gen lights... i believe they are the exact ones without the orange refelctor and that they are all black housing.... i might be wrong on that tho.... the pics from japan look like it...

azn_nite_ryder 05-01-2002 01:02 AM

oh yea and no the acura HIDS will not fit... you have to custom mount them in... in other words.. headlight conversion baby!!!
you can make whatever you want fit but as for stock mounting.. aight gonna happen... only if things were that easy.. then we would all have sweeet stuff:yes:

94AccordEx-R 05-04-2002 02:38 PM

one more question...
any rewiring or anything on the 3beam headlights?

R34..

azn_nite_ryder 05-05-2002 02:33 AM

oh yea... now thats some sweeet lights....

as for the 3 beam... its not really that much more work.. just an extra wire you have to hook up.. its not bad... took us about 30 mins to put in...

accordfreak 05-05-2002 05:01 AM

no such thing as a ONE PIECE headlight for the 5th gen.

also there's a second generation 3 beams where the low beams uses h1 bulbs instead of h3

azn_nite_ryder 05-06-2002 12:06 AM

not unless you put a JDM teg or prelude one piece on.... only a lil bit of cutting is required to fit those in....
