anyone put the RSX headlamps in a civic coupe/sedan?
i now you need a diffrent bumper, but what about a hood?
could you do a little bit of cutting?
what about the side pannels?
anyone done this conversion?

no but , you will have to modify the light connections,get a new hood for rsx,headlights,front bumper, and fenders. they should bolt right up to the stock holes, but i remember a while back i asked about that to. that **** would look tight.= front of rsx=back off 7gen.....ket me know how it goes if you decide to do it.good luck man....shouldnt be that hard at all.lataz bro

the ballasts will prolly have to be from the RSX as well as the hood and modified fenders, the bumper might be able to be modified but im not sure how functional it would be. It wont be cheap at all but it can be done.

its all possible with a little bit of green.... (or in this case alot)

what do you mean by "functional bumper"? like it won't bump? what about "modified fenders? i would just buy RSX fenders.
the total cost would be like $900.
that's not expensive.
that's a beauty........ they'd say....

I think its the July issue of Honda Tuning that has a CRX with an RSX front end conversion.
I know that its in the August issue, but its not an article, just a small pic. Some guy wrote into them and told them that the RSX looked crap and that how he was a proud owner of a stk rsx rah rah rah, then HT told him to look a lil closer it was a CRX.

I know this didnt help, but yeah, its shows that it IS possible.

I saw a couple of 6th gens with the conversion. I guess it's possible, but why would you do it? Those headlights are ok, but not all that great.

who says the RSX fenders are gonna bolt in, your gonna have to MODIFY the RSX fenders. As far as a functional bumper i mean are you gonna have to chop so much so that its no longer gonna absorb an impact? Form and function.

You would deff have to mod the fenders.. Which I think would be the hardest part. Good luck with that. And $900? where did you come up with that number? The headlights alone are like $500 arnt they?

~nick~

yea the lights run anywhere from 400 to 500 at least. This wont be a cheap conversion but then again none of them are.

Not too sure how much the Acura OEM headlights are, but I know the cheapest JDM headlights (the authentic Honda ones) I've seen is $500 (shipping included).

Your Bumper is behind your bumper cover, or front fascia what ever ya wanna call em
if you look on the clearing your headlight DIY

The bumper is the thing with the Foam attached to it. (ok the foam just kinda sits there)

so if you have to modify the bumper cover your still not losing any function of the bumper, which is rated pretty low anyway.

I would take the rsx headlights over our headlights any day, they are nice.

Man 900 is a low ball, big time. The headlights are like 3 somethin them selves. YOU need the hood, the fenders, the bumper, the headlight harnesses,and brackets. you basically need the whole front end of an rsx. try like 3G's. might as well by a turbo. but if you are gonna do it more power to ytou, and please take pics! i really wanted to do it when i first got my car but found out how much it really costs.

The fenders won't bolt right up. They will have to be modified slightly to fit, which in turn might cause the bumper (cover), hood, and headlights to be moved around a little. As far as I know, no one has done this even though it has been talked about since the two cars came out. However, if you have an EP3, the fenders, hood, headlights and bumper will bolt right up. So an RSX/SI conversion is easily possible.

DITTO !!!! man those are nice, but only if they are the JDM kind. blackhousing with HID's

nothing is impossbile

is that an ep3 or a coupe/sedan?^
that's what i want!!!
what did you have to spend? three grand seams WAY too much.
i was thinking $900, but now i reconsitered, maybe $1300
thats sweet!!!

looks like the bumper was just modded.. so im guessing that its just a photochop

its a chop...but as far as the lights are concerned..if you ever go by www.clubrsx.com..you can usually buy a good pair of used heads for about 200 plus shipping.

yup looks like a chop

^^ how can you not tell that its a chop? its so obvious.

That is a chop. And those headlights make the civic look ugly. Too much money for that kind of mod.

whatever.....these lights are pimp....

I love the headlights but just not on a 7th gen.

If you have the K20 swap I could see it, but if not, you're just being a poser by doing that.

Can't we just mod the fenders we got instead of getting another fender and still gotta mod it...

I'm sure that would work, but it would be a pretty good bit of work as with any headlight conversion.

i think it would be hot. IMO ild rather do the TSX headlight conversion
if you decide to do it, good luck hope it works out. Im sure it will look off the hook when its done. Also which i forgot if it was mentioned once you get the parts all fitted perfect you are still gonna have paint everything, and thats money too.
