When you get projector headlights dont you have to change your headlight type? Or do you still use h4's?

They change to H1's, I believe. Well, at least, mine did.

TYCs use H1's too for both high and low beams. But they come with all the needed bulbs already installed, so you are good to go right away.

both above statements are true, good headlights, although you may want to take it to your dealer once theyre installed so they can alighn them, there a pain in the ***

I like projectors but i hate H1's they are the worst lights ever made, hey simplySLB has your lowbeam projector bulbs burnd out, I had the same ones and mine were burning out like every other week and buying new bulbs was getting to b a pain and costly.
Thanx

hey curt, I have the TYC's. ive had them since about july, but on new years eve, one of the low beams blew on me, all i could find (although i dindnt think to look at Advance Auto, or Auto Zone, or PepBoys) were Eurolite Xenon bulbs. Dont buy them theyre Sh*t, i had one go in about 10 days. Today i installed some lights from Hella, im confident they will be good because i know hella is a big Off-Road light maker, and theyve been around for a while. its daytime so i dont know how they are at night, but i do know that with the ones TYC supplied, you could look at them when theyre on and not be totally blinded, but these, oh man, these are like lookin at two little suns. the hellas ran me about 27 bucks plus tax. BTW, the eurolites, are too blue, they dramaticly cut down on the low beam, i could hardly stand it, it was like they were aimed at the road, they cut atleast 20-50 feet of road surface illumination, and they didnt light up much else that was around either., if these go, i have a set of Sylvania's i bout at Advance Auto for 6.99 a piece, so well see how they do, if necessary.

Im seriously considering the TYc projectors. Ive seen most civic owners on this site seem to perferr them anyway.

Thanx eternal, do you know if there might something wrong with the wiring. I was thinking about taking them to a shop and see if they could find any thing wrong with them. I got them off EBAY so maybe thats the prob. I dont know but i am think of a way to make my on Halo on my oem head. and not around my main bulb.

no problem curt, anything to help, i dont think its the wiring though, its a common thing, the glass lens on the low beam traps a lot of heat compared to the projector high beam with is of a more conventional design.

renegade, would you want to buy mine im sellin them, so if youre interrested make an offer, theyre about 6 months old and there is nothing wrong with them, ill even include all extra bulbs i have.

I get paid on friday, Im willing to spend what you offer but just to let you know I know a website where I can get these for around 250. So any price under that seems good.

 
Rep Power: 0

well, i bought them for 260, so how about 225? it has the origional high beam bulbs in, its got a set of Hella low beams in now(paid $29 for them), plus youll get a pair of sylvanias(paid 7 bucks each for them), theyll be in the origional box, ill even deliver them so you wont have to pay shipping, what do you think man?

Hey Eternal how much for your exhaust and whats the mileage on it, Is it very loud and could you feel any gains from it.

 
Rep Power: 0

curt, well, its a DC TCS, it has maybe 15000 miles on it. I love the sound of it, it is 100% what i was looking for when i bought it. Its nice and deep and mellow at idle, sometimes you cant even tell its there(like when sitting in traffic at a red light). Once above idle, it starts to get louder but stays deep till around 3000 rpm, then it gets a little louder till about 4 or 5000 rpm, after that, pretty much all you hear from inside is the engine. Im not sure about on the outside of the car though. I have heard it from the outside once. It went to about 1500-2000 rpm, im guessing. It had the familiar Honda sound, but wasnt too ricey as the B series motors tend to sound. If youre interrested, ill leave it on and take you for a test drive in it, If you like what you hear, ill help you install it. As with most, if not all, other exhausts available for our cars, i felt literally no performance increase, but the main reason i bought it anyway it because i missed the sound of an exhaust on a car.

Im asking $400(origionally paid about $650)

2 things i pm you before i read this, but do you know the specs on it like pipe size and do you have an intake.

 
Rep Power: 0

i believe the pipe size is either 2.25" or 2.5", it has a 3" tip i believe, and no, i do not have an Intake.

Hi EternalVTEC... do you have a "members' rides" page which includes info of the mods done with ur car and pics of ur ride? I'm a beginner at this stuff. My ride is 2001 Coupe EX. By the way, do you happen to have instructions on how to replace the stock rear bumper of 01 Civics? I have a big crater in the rear left-side where it curves and want it fix. What do you think is the easiest way to get rid of it? Can it be heated even though its plexiglass?

Thanks.
Thomas

theres the link, as far as the bumper, its not plexiglass, but thats ok, its actually urethane i believe. although ive never done it, im sure its not too hard to get the rear bumper off. you can probably push on the dent in the bumper with your hand to see if itll come out, its getting dark so i cant get a good look at my trunk area, so ill look at it as soon as i can and let you know, i promise, but it may only be friday cause i have to work long hours the next couple days, sorry, but after i look at it, ill post it in here, so keep your eye on this thread.
