CLeared Lights

Whew!....After about three hours I finally got my headlights cleared...I think they look a lot better like that....And they came out pretty good....What kind of lights should i put for the daytime lights and my turning signals ? I have PIAA Super Plasma HEadlights right now....What do you think would go good with them ?

Hey Civic-OJ, what's up man ? Good job on the clearing of the headlights. It only took me two hours...: )
But those headlights rock, I have the same ones. They make blue bulbs that look really nice and you can order them online.
Make sure you get the right ones, just look at the Bulb Chart in the DIY section. The lights I have on my turns and parking are blue and look great during the day because they make it look like there's a blue peice of plastic on the inside....and at night, they light up a a blueish-white. Check'em out.............My Ride

Naw, it will just void the warranty on the head lights. Like if you have probs with em or something (which you wont if you do a good job with clearing em) then they will screw you over, and say go away you cleared them so we cant do nothin. But just take your time, do a good job, make sure no water leaks into them...remember even 1 dropplet into the headlights will fog up the entire thing!

They are gonna try to screw you out of your warranty any way they can....If your that worried I would say just go buy a pair of projectors and keep the stock in case you ever need to get somethign fixed... Then you can just pop the stocks back in....And projectors look nicer than cleared headlights......Im gettin a camera tonight so i can take pics...Then get them developed onto a disc...Then you will all have pics...I got 3 jl 12w6's last night...Thing hits hard...just need to fix the rattle...any suggestions ?

I cleared my headlights, and now i have this gap on the left side of the right lamp right around my bumper and fender. The bumper went back on right and the headlamp doesnt interfere with closing the hood, what did I do wrong?

CivicKid. our cars rattle like Woah. I'd suggest Dynamatt or something cheaper. Grey Suggested a certain underlay, you can find info in ICE. the thread isn't hard to find. I'm gonna do that myself. But first i need a working amp.

Does anyone have a problem with changing any of the front headlight bulbs. There's not much space to put a hand in there to change any of the lights. Does anyone know if there is a special tool used by honda to change head light bulbs. Taking off the bumper to change a head light is too much of a hassle,
Thanks,

t's not the headlights themselves that I find hard to change. It's the Park Bulbs, and the Signals. Those can be a bitch!

Give it some time. Think of the car as something you just had surgery on... the exterior takes time to heal. It'll be fine if you put everything on correctly but I noticed that you can't put everything back together unless everything is on correctly.
