and these say you can upgrade to HID but if this is true i want to get the first ones with the black inside. let me know thanks alot.
what actually makes the halo light? is it just a bulb behind it or something?

- Sun Jun 15, 2008 4:39 am #58564 its the LED ring around the light that makes the halo. also i think that i have seen tyc one piece headlights with an hid upgrade....not sure thought just be careful what you buy the fitment on some of those one piece headlights is vary poor.

- Sun Jun 15, 2008 4:41 am #58565 you can get a set of stock headlights or even the jdm headlights and do a retro fit hid on it..my friend did it to his.

hahahahah are you comparing HID's to Halo's? they aren't even close, and don't even compare to each other, if you tries to drive at night with only the Halo's it'd be like taking your call phone and trying to drive from the glow of the screen HID's(now i'm referring to OEM HID or a retrofit not a kit) would be like having two spotlights on the front of your car

Remember when Civics were cool ? Yea me neither

- Mon Jun 16, 2008 10:36 am #58730 For the love of GOD .. stay away from halos .. sorry... dont take offense... I bought some when I first got my hatch... soon as they were on my car... I extremely regretted it... They will NOT fit properly in your bumper.. yes.. some people go to the extent with body modification to make them look good.. but its too much for these kind of lights... Not only that... but the halos tend to burn out on one side quicker than the other!
I dont know if it was just me.. but also, my lights were horribly aimed and couldnt be aimed correctly... A projector makes the light nice and straight cut so it doesnt blind other people.. but my halos (which are the exact ones you are showing here) never protruded the light the right way.. they were always messed up and pointing a different direction... Also,,, to aim them, you need your front bumper off... thats anoying if you ask me... sorry.... but save up a few bucks and just get a retro fit
