Default JDM Headlights for 96-98

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33710

Are those actual JDM 96-98 Headlights or some rip off? I would rather get these if they are legit since it mainly doesnt have that gay ass pertruding bubble on the side.

THere is also these...

both fake

genuine j-spec headlamps are not SAE/DOT approved. both sets does not have courtesy lamp sockets. and they both have the US spec bike reflector on the corner lenses.

Also the CosmoDynamic headlights pictured are 99-00 models not 96-98.

At $499/set that's got to hurt.

Go to http://www.modacar.com/products/Honda/Civic/8CJFT

Someone please verify that that is the correct headlights picture.

The bottom ones pictured in the ad are 99-00. I'm not sure about 96-98 but the 99-00 JDM head lights have city lights in them.

God damn 99-00 GRRRRR tottaly better look grrrrrr

Swissarmyca..

That pic is showing 99-00 lights. Look at the rear of the lights and notice how it is a straight edge whereas the 96-98 is a bit more rounded. Also near the front of the light on 96-98's they arent as long as the 99-00's. For a sight selling lights for $500 you would think they would give you the option to enlarge the photo and show the correct year lights.

489$ or 469$ .... ehhhhh just for black chrome which does make it look a hell of alot better than painting the insides of stock lights flat black. That price is wayy too high.

My bad... I knew something was wrong with the picture. And I agree that 99-00 headlights look better. Any chance of doing a 99-00 front end conversion to get those headlights?

I seriously hate the 96-98 front end argggg

Auto-Body Parts.com has everything for $697.06 which includes the 2 headlights, hood, 2 fenders, front bumper. Will I need the radiator support and if so then the finnal price is $766.70. Both prices have S/H included. Is that the going price for the essential items need to do a Front-End conversion?

I cant get anything out of the local junkyards since Civics are always stripped before they enter the yard. I dont know anyone localy that is willing to sell 99-00 front end parts.
