It say's its for a 2001-2003 Civic 2/4dr, but could these fit or could you have them fitted to a 2004 civic?

in order to have them fit on a 04 05 style civic you will have to change the fenders, hood, bumper, grill and maybe modify the radiator support so that your front end will be able to fit those headlights.

Ah ok, didn't realize the difference was so drastic, I just really liked those lights because of the double halo

I wonder how hard it would be to retrofit the Insight projectors for a 7th gen Civic.

Yeah, the '05 bumpers actually have little sport lips on them. Pretty cool.

Re: 04 Civic Projector Headlights?

think about it, the shape of 01-03 headlights are different from the 04-05. if you change the shape of your headlights then obviously your gonna have to change all the surrounding parts so everything will line up right; hood, fenders, bumper, grill. honestly, i don't know why people ask if you can just swap the headlights between the two. first thing i noticed between the two are the headlights, 04-05 amber piece isn't anywhere close to being as big as the 01-03 plus 04-05 lights look more aggressive.

the picture of that o4-05 civic, the white jeep in the background, by the looks of that front tire it looks like that axle is all jacked up.
