Eh, they won't fit like OEM ... but depending the price, they're not bad at all.

I got into a small accident and now the left side headlight is broken, that's why I need a replacement. I have been searching through ebay and came
across this OBX headlight but it's said it's not DOT approve and etc....some wiring may req'd.

Is Depo JDM black housing better? $ 130 USD a pair? I don't want projector.

thnx for your advice.

check the for sale section on HAN and other boards.... people are always trying to get rid of stock headlights after purchasing aftermarket ones
