Rep Power: 0 WTB: Cleared Stock Headlights
Title says it all. Has to be in great condition, no scratches, and does not fog...Anyone?!
Also, I'm still a noob at this modifying ish, but is it legal or illegal to clear your headlights in Cali?! Just wondering...Thanks.

Rep Power: 0 ACTUALLY ITS A DO IT YOURSELF THING. THE YELLOW PIECE IN YOUR HAEDLAMP IS A SMALL PIECE OF PLASTIC. YOU CAN TAKE OFF THE FRONT BUMPER REMOVE THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT HOUSING AND THEN TAKE IT APART, REMOVE THE YELLOW PIECE OF PLASTIC, THEN PUT IT ALL BACK TOGETHER. I DID IT WITHOUT MUCH KNOW HOW AND WITHOUT HELP WITH JUST A COUPLE OF WRENCHES AND A COUPLE OF HOURS (ISH) AND ITS NOT ILLEGAL AT ALL, ONLY IF YOU PUT RED OR BLUE LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENTS

Rep Power: 0 You can buy it cleared from Honda Japan. In other countries, the Hybrid has it cleared, but they go for around $120 / each! I was trying to get one from Japan myself. Oh yea, don't forget shipping.
Legal talk wise, it's illegal at least in California. I think it's like a bicycle helmet, cops won't really care unless you get caught for something else. I heard of MANY cases around me where people got a "fix-it" ticket. Either way, looks great, I would take the risk, IF IT"S FREE. $120/each, I don't know about that and if I do clear it... can I just make it normal again once I get a "fix-it"?

Rep Power: 0 Yeah, kinda figured it was illegal in cali....Us in Cali must have an amber reflector...I'll check out HondaJapan site, but I'll probably likely get TYC's instead.
Kenji, which part of San Jo you from? I normally go there Sundays at 99 Ranch and Goldilocks (to eat and chill). I'm from Monterey, CA (Near Pebble Beach/Carmel/etc) which is about 50 min. away from San Jo. Any good shops there in San Jo besides Razo n them other shops??? Thanks.

Rep Power: 0 UCSC has some pretty nice lookin chickas there...My friend goes there too...Actually haven't been in that campus for a while now. UCSC was one of my choices, but I'll most likely be headed to CSUMB sinces its only 5 min. away from my house. I assume your majoring in science or art????

...And yeah, my car is stock as well...Not doing anything performance wise, but as for looks, yup! Hit me up if your in the Monterey area (but be warned, its hella boring here)....Oh does your Civic have rims on it?! Cuz I remember goin' to Ranch 99 and seeing a Silver Coupe with rims and a OEM spoiler??
