Whatsup guys im new to the clubcivic. I just bought a 97 civic and put the 99-00 front clip on it. I have after market black housing headlights. I also bought the type r fog lights.... the fog lights seemed to had been cheap because they have burned the center lightly brown..... Now my question is i dont want the same thing to happen to my new headlights.....has anyone had this same problem??

headlights are usually okay because there is a large space for heat to dissipate. fogs are too small and the bulb is very close, plug its a small sealed lamp.

its the glare shield that burned brown on my foglights, and that what i dont want to turn brown on my headlights.....

Ive read alot of different **** lately i just dont want to ruin my new headlights.....


And is there anyway to get the foglights open so i can fix that glare shield...

its hard to do, usually the glass will break if you pry it open. better to just get new ones.

different parts, some are better than others. if they seem like same size, 01-05 civic lens does not burn. but 03+ acura rsx does. so my brother ended up using the civic reflectors in his rsx and no problems.
