I had 3 pair of the halos. I loved the way the looked but would leak and fog up every time I washed my car. I finally bought the TYCs and haven't leaked in 6 months. I miss the first ones though

my jdm honda tail lights even leak but only in the red part so its not noticable. the clear plastic on altezzas easily shows the yucky water stains[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] i have the same problem with my headlights because they fogged up real bad a few times after i cleared them cause i didnt use enough silicone

I'm keeping the oem tails because altezzas are just too common these days. As for the headlights, they stopped fogging up after I resealed them a 2nd time but I have stupid water stains in them [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] I'm just too lazy to do the whole process a 3rd time so that's how it's going to stay, unless I decide to get projectors.

I've had the Donut Altezzas on for more than a year now. No Problems. Just mak sure all you lights are turn securely in the holes of the Taillamps and that you have also kept that foam grey piece that goes in between the lamp and the frama of the civic.

I was the first 7th gen Civic owner in my area. Then when everyone started getting them about late 2000, I bought the Tezzas to be Unique again. Then I started seeing mothers drive Civics with Tezzas. I'm planning on painting the stockies, or buyin one of those all red Tezzas with a halo inside them.

Did you remember to put the foam backings in after you did the swap? I forgot and it rained the first night, got some water inside one of the outer housings, but after thatn i got it dried up and then took teh foam backings from my old stock ones and then reinstalled with them, and they never leaked again.

get the windshield type silicone, its very thin, slips into the cracks very easily and you cant even see it once its applied if you take your time. fixed my leaking problems on my apc altezzas.
