Headlight Question

I have a 2001 civic (DX) and I am thinking of replacing the headlight units because they are sun-baked and cracked!

Here are the option I have in mind:

Find a good used pair

or

A tasteful aftermarket pair

Your input is highly appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Headlight Question

aftermarkets look nice but there cheap and have basically no UV protection so you'll be in the same boat in a couple months. i suggests you buy a headlight restoration kit like 3M $15 bucks then some lens sealer and keep them waxed.

Re: Headlight Question

If they are cracked, then you should get another pair.

If you decide to go aftermarket, don't get the projector ones because they really suck. The only decent projector-headlight is made by tyc or depo
