if everything works out with my transaction, i will be getting chrome TYCs and painting them black w/a green pearl (hopefully). then it'll be time to get some white angel eyes if they fit. i'll work something out.

Sweet. I say get the first pair if you don't like amber, or the second if you do. TYC is the best quality.

zachgeyer 10-04-2004 09:21 PM

i bet those all leak

born2xLr8 10-04-2004 10:49 PM

Where are the first pair of lights from?

importz2k1 10-04-2004 10:59 PM

I like them all........

RiceRocketeer 10-04-2004 11:00 PM

I have the first pair.. but both iris's cracked.. dunno how maybe just heat..

I think OEM blacked out is much better.. but whatever you like is what you should get..

modoman 10-04-2004 11:02 PM

the halos are lower quality, but they look so good... i say tyc's, the middle

project: EM2k4 10-04-2004 11:04 PM

Tyc!

el_ben2 10-04-2004 11:11 PM

againifall 10-05-2004 08:07 AM

i have the last ones.. not sure how i feel about them yet though cuz i still have not put them in.. they are definitely going to have to be resealed.. im not trusting the putty thats in them..

XTREME2K2CIVIC 10-05-2004 08:35 AM

I say OEM Blacked out or the Black Chrome edition like mine...Oh and of course with HID's...

joe6680 10-05-2004 08:47 AM

I have the first set. If you want them I'll sell you mine. Make me an offer if your interested.

pbfoot 10-05-2004 09:20 AM

the TYCs (middle) are probably the highest quality headlights of those you posted, but i like the look of the matrix ones (1st) best because of just the 3 lights instead of 4. but matrix has(had?) fitment/leaking/fogging issues in the past, so its something to watch for. plus they have been known to be a bit dimmer than TYCs, but if you retrofit some audi HIDs or something im sure you can fix that problem.

dawn01civ 10-05-2004 09:23 AM

I had the first ones but they werent sealed properly and filled up with about a cup of water or so... oh, and the halos stopped working after about a month.

RedDragon333 10-05-2004 04:26 PM

I prefer the stock painted balck.

NightRider02 10-05-2004 06:20 PM

i actually have the first set now with HID's. i really like how they look but i've had problems with condensation and whatnot. most people say the tyc's are the best quality, but i dont know if i like how they look. and i would black out my stock headlights, but they got stolen. i like how the dual halo's look, but i dont want to deal with the same problems my current lights are giving me (single halo's). ugh...

XxSoVeReiGNxX 10-05-2004 07:20 PM

I bought the first ones for the simple 3 circle look, not because of the halo. If the 3rd set were out back then, I would have bought those because the 2 halos look good. I don't care if they light up or not, I didn't even wire mine.



All of them give lesser light output than stock headlights, unless you use the highbeam. the wannabe projector lens (the glass in the middle pod) only drowns out the light, aimed or not aimed properly.

Whichever ones you get, fill the spaces with household silicone where the clear plastic meets the black housing. Just so you save yourself the trouble if they do fog up.

Caucasian.Asian 10-05-2004 08:20 PM

tyc, don't get the other cheap imitators

how you manage to get your lights stolen? Dont you have to take off the bumper to get at em?

hmm perhaps zero alarm system?

acurastype01 10-05-2004 09:30 PM
