hey!

that's a very interesting way to do it! however, its probably only for those whos willing to cut the pugs.....

btw, just for an update....due to the recent electrical problem in my car, i got the chance to replace the whole wiring into 04-05 wiring!

they can be found on ebay or from your local honda dealership. there are other sources, but a simple search can help you there.

i'll give you a hint, though. there are online shops that carry them for cheaper than your honda dealership, but they themselves are honda dealerships.

vacivic2005 is a jewel in the rough vacivic2005 is a jewel in the rough vacivic2005 is a jewel in the rough vacivic2005 is a jewel in the rough
when you guys have your lights on at night, is there any light on in the rear other than your license plate lights?

my friend just did the conversion on his 02 civic, and there isn't a light that's on at night, except for his license plate lights. might become a safety issue.

all the lights work though, when braking, signalling, reversing etc.

any help? thanks.

my friends don't light up unless he presses the brakes. when you turn your headlights on, the rear tail lights should light up also, and when you press the brake, the light goes on brighter. but in his case, there is no light on when he has headlights on, only when pressing the brake. might be a fuse, i doubt it though, they were working prior to installation.
