Tyc Makes Stock Headlights
 
So Me And Xam Were Blacking Out Are Headlights When I Noticed That Tyc Makes Are Stock Headlights Well Atleast On The 01-03 I Did Not See It On Xam 04, I Thought That Was Cool

dirtySAMURAI 03-26-2005 08:16 PM

wtf? you sure about that?

xam 03-27-2005 03:33 AM

i will take pics of the proof sometime later when i am finished with my car b4 the carshow.

dirtySAMURAI 03-27-2005 10:51 AM

yeah please post pics. i'm g oing to go check my spare OEM headlight

ImPulse 03-27-2005 11:29 AM

weird, where does it say TYC? I know on their projectors it says, "TYC" on the outside of the lense

Danka02 04-02-2005 12:35 PM

yes on stock headlights is clearly says tyc

dirtySAMURAI 04-02-2005 01:09 PM

mine dont say TYC anywhere...and i have 2 and a half sets of them

Danka02 04-02-2005 03:41 PM

thats werid my do, XAM's dont, what year is your car? i know you have the other green sedan, my rightside light has it in the corner by the grille if that helps at all, i shit you not my light say"s TYC on the lens it easy to see on mine because my lights are blacked out

dirtySAMURAI 04-02-2005 04:18 PM

hmm nope. all of mine say honda. maybe you have aftermarket headlights? did you get your car used? it was probably in a front end accident if it was used (or the person bought replacement headlights)

Danka02 04-02-2005 04:24 PM

nope got the car new but i was in a crash a few months ago where they repalce my rightside light, XAM saw it when we blackout are lights, my left side light says honda but i cant belive no one else has seen this or knows about it this is strange now i want to know why it says it i try calling tyc maybe they can help

dirtySAMURAI 04-02-2005 04:30 PM

i think the shop you went to replaced the headlight with an aftermarket one made by TYC. look inside the headlight at the large reflective piece. compare them. one will probably be more ridged (? more lines).

Danka02 04-02-2005 04:35 PM

i just called honda to see if they knew they dont, but since alpine makes are stock cd players i can assume that tyc has made stock 7thgen headlights for honda but i"m going to see what tyc says first i will try and post a pic soon to show you

Danka02 04-02-2005 04:38 PM

ok so TYC has no contact info besides email which i cant use at work nor do they have a # WTF

crazyasian 04-02-2005 05:12 PM

i looked at my headlights didnt see the TYC signs and i have a 05 civic. ill check again might have missed it but i think you might be the only one with that cause u swapped headlights. i dont know my thought

Danka02 04-02-2005 05:39 PM

naw i dont think 04-05's have it cuz XAM does not have it he has a 04

xam 04-03-2005 06:04 PM

That has to be what happend. The shop i work at replaces them all the time with am lights(id rather use oem but ins cos are jerks lol)

tougas01 04-04-2005 10:26 AM

my driver side one has a honda written on it but my passenger side has a TYC headlight
so if you can read Honda on ur headlight you will never find TYC, these are jobber parts.

I got only one cuz I got involved in an accident and had to replace only one but if you have never replaced them they will be HONDA oem not TYC.

But would it be possible that honda headlights were all made by TYC? ;) (I mean for oe)
