Well there are kits but people say they suck, much better result comes from retrofit but that is much more work and little more money.

You can buy a kit. I have the same one I used on my Nissan 300ZX. It was the same bulb type (9006?). There's a little glare, but I don't want to install projectors on my Civic.
