Default Civic headlight question?

Will 96-98 headlights fit on a 99 Civic? There is a pair on Ebay that I am interested in but I am not sure if they will fit? The guy lists them as 96-99 Honda CIVIC Headlights and here is his description: These are rare..hard to find Iridescent Headlights that will fit all 96-99 Honda civic's. They are in great shape as you can see in the pictures. Please let me know something.

**PLEASE LOOK AT THE PICS**

Nope, they are a different shape, those headlights (or any '96-'98 headlights) will not fit a '99-'00 Civic without modification. By modification I mean swapping the front fenders, hood, bumper and grill.

I don't mean this to be rude, but I'd consider yourself lucky. Those headlights just don't do anything for me.

The guy that is selling them said: Oh, I am sorry I messed up on the auction description. They are for 96-98 Civic's, not the 99. I will change it, but I do believe that they will fit on your car, but with small modifications, but if you dont want to modify your car a little bit you can just retract your bid for the headlights. I am glad I found out before the auction ended.

Yea, sounds like a shady seller...

his version of Minor modification = new font end

Don't deal with retards who don't know what they have - unless they don't know about their autographed micky mantle rookie card.
