projector headlights

What ones work, I've heard that some of them dont work well and burn out the lights after like a month or so... By the way I got black civic which ones would look the best that actually work, or should I just keep the cleared out ones?

you must be talking about the halo projectors...yes those halos will burn-out

but if your talking about the H1 bulbs that come in the projectors...just upgrade to Mtec H1 2X bulbs (stay with 60/55W)...i had no problems with my pair even after 8+ months

JayFReaZy will become famous soon enough
I've had my halo's runnin strong for over 1 yr . I will admit though that lighting is definetly worse than stock. TYC has better light output, but not THAT much better. Its really up to you, i love the way my halo's look. But at times, i do wish I could see the road better lol.
