civic headlights on an EL?
Does anyone know if civic headlight will fit on a El? I'm pretty sure they'll fit, but do they look really off; I know the front bumper's,and hood's lines are different on the el. The reason I ask is because I want to put projections on my EL and can't find any made for my car.
thanks in advance

Civic headlights WON'T FIT. You're gonna have to swap hood, fenders, bumper, & front grill to do something like that.
Do you have a 1.6 or 1.7 EL? Reason I ask is I believe it's easier to do a retrofit of projectors onto a 1.6 than it is on a 1.7. That's the only route to go w/ projectors, unless you use an HID plug n' play kit.
I'll let everybody else take over the questions from here, as I have pretty much pulled out of my head everything I know about this subject. LOL...

For either 1.6 or 1.7, you'd have to swap exactly what marty said - hood, fenders, bumper, grille. And let's not forget the bumper lights.
I actually think it's easier to retrofit projectors into a 1.7 since the light assembly is taller.
