Headlight Question
Well a while back my horn stopped working and so last week I went into the dealership and had them fix it. It turned out that my aftermarket spoilers light which looks OEM but is not factory.........pulled in more power than the true stock spoiler and caused a short when i hit the brakes. Now I am thinking about getting those new projector headlights for my 04 civic and I am wondering if any of you out there who have installed these projectors have had any problems such as a short or anything. Any help would be great
PS........what the hell post some pics of your 04 or 05 with these projectors
Thank you

not many have projectors on the 04+ civics quite yet. but i know theirs a few around on these forums with them on their 04+ civics. i think they look real nice and add a luxurious look if done right. but i still think DIY blacked out headlights are better... heres a nice sample
as for your question, i think the cons of installing projectors over OEM headlights are:
-bad lighting output
-leaks... lights can fog up, water gets in?
-the lense arent as strong as OEM as OEM headlights can handle a beating with rocks/other objects on the highway
im not sure about short on the electricals, never heard anyone complaining about that one. but if you plan to go HID, projectors are the way to go over OEM.
