I second that. PlastX cleared up my cloudy/yellowed headlight lenses beautifully. From what I remember, it was no more than 4 or 5 dollars at Wal-Mart.

no prob. i took apart my stereo face today and tried to polish it with scratchX, so far this has helped the most and its doesnt look cloudy anymore, altho its still scratched. i would buy a new piece but theyre discontinued lol. now my plastic plate is held onto the face with a few pieces of scotch tape haha. i dont think it will fall out tho otherwise ill just glue it back from inside. i wanna get a new deck but cant find one that looks normal and doesnt have all sorts of rice lights like blue and green and red all over. so for now ima just keep the one i have.

did u replace the third brake bulb with anything brighter? mine just went out

gearbox

iTrader: (95)

i replaced it with the whole new LED piece from 2006+ civic EX coupe. its very bright and has 6 snapleds (red-orange) with focusing lens. but if thats too much trouble, get the raybrig hyper clear 7440 bulb, its almost 2x brighter than stock while using the normal 21w. im using them in my rear signals and reverse lights.

8thgen lamp needs to be glued in place. the shape is the same, but the mounting is different. i just used some silicone on the back side. if you want the clear lensed version with more superflux leds, get the new 06+ hybrid piece. this one is for ex coupe.





and the bulb if you want to keep it stock

im guessing i cant get that bulb at kragens??
and should i use gloves when I touch that bulb?

gearbox

iTrader: (95)

i would always wipe any filament bulb with a cloth prior to installing, since it extends life. you can get the raybrig bulb online if you google it, or ebay too prolly.

kcari

iTrader: (5)

thanks but i'll just get a random one at kragens/autozone cuz i dont wanna get pulled over because of it

gearbox

iTrader: (95)

pulled over? thats doubtful for having a brighter and safer bulb. its a clear bulb just brighter. the stock 7440 is one of the dimmest bulbs compared to other american sizes.

kcari

iTrader: (5)

no i meant, pulled over for not having one in the first place, mine blew out

gearbox

iTrader: (95)

oh okay lol. its actually the law in almost every state that it reads you can have two or more brake lights. two is enough so i dont think you would get pulled unless one of the side brakelights is out.

agreed, most states wont ticket for no third brake light

Where can I find that DC sports header Gearbox? Cause the only one I can find online is for the EX... Can that fit my LX sedan?

gearbox

iTrader: (95)

only if you convert the entire exhaust system to EX (downpipe, cat, and catback, muffler). otherwise no its for ex only.

elementalchain

Looks nice, especially the engine bay. By the way, where did you get the red hose things in your bay?

Batt2low

Yo great looking ride . I was wondering how u cleaned up your headlights, did u replace or buy a lense cleaning kit. If you used a kit whats it called?

gearbox

iTrader: (95)

you can use a plastic polish like meguiars plast-x if its not too bad. im getting new headlights in a week so doesnt matter i guess lol.

Hey Gearbox... Does Greddy make sports headers for an es2 cause i'm thinking of getting the Evo2 catback!

gearbox

iTrader: (95)

pretty sure there are no greddy headers

RyuNyte

Yeah there arent any for our cars, you can do the Hp race header to hi flow cat to greddy evo2 exhaust, HONCIV02 did that set up.
