there are some knockoff jdm's on ebay that are brand new for about ~200, they just dont have the two horizontal bars going across them.
passwordjdm has some used ones for 250, and i've never heard any complaints about them.
i guess you shouldn't have sold me yours :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

cool thanks, I'm building my car for show purposes as well as occasional summer driving, I just want everything to look crazy clean. I tend to be a perfectionist sometimes.

f you want the headlight to look best do what im gonna do. take the headlight polish thema nd then add sum clear lamix to the exterior to give it that extra clean look.

thanks for all of your tips guys, but I'm still going with brand new ones, I found a site $544 chrome or black brand new That's not bad at all:rolleyes: . autocarparts.com cheapest place yet, all others want over $700 shipped:eek: .

those are very clean in fact the cleanest I've since on ebay yet, but look a the 7th pic down they have scratches and that's why I'm goign with new ones which will cost a little bit less the double of 250+85ship=335 new ones 544+34ship= 578 that's a 243 difference. I'm building a real life show car not a wild crazy show xtrem car, so I'm planning to register into HIN in atlantic city NJ and that's why I persist on new jdm instead of used, there's nothing wrong with them it's just that I'm not taking shortcuts with my car. Besides when you have a complete rare Mugen kit for a 4th it's worth going to shows.

buying parts before the car hehe. I did that before I bought my second prelude:biggrin: And thanks for the offer but I'm already ordering mine, but you shouldn't have any problem selling those which are very clean pimp

Are the sockets for the bulbs the same as the ones on the USDM headlights?

nope....jdm one peices use h1/h4 sockets so a rewire is required. the usdm use 9005/9006 sockets
