ok guys, since everyone else is too chicken, im gonna be the guinea pig here and get those immitation jdm 1 piece headlight off of ebay. ill order them tomorrow after i deposit some money into my checking acount. i know ill probably get flamed by some people for doing this because they'll think its "rice". but whatever. im not out to impress other people. im not getting real ones because 1: i do not want to have to wire them and 2: the ones im getting are brand new, not used and plug and play. so ill be doing a review on them since i know some of you 4th genners have ben wondering how they work, how they look, etc. when i get them ill post pics, and after theyre installed ill snap some more and post em on here.

i just figured id let everyone know

dude i usually park next to at school has those on his '95...they look really good IMO for being ebay ones and the fitment is good and everything....only thing is i've never seen them at night so i dunno how well they work/look at night and stuff so...

which ones are you getting? the black with clear sides, or the black with amber sides?? the amber is sexy...

even though theyre not "real" jdm lights, im aiming for the jdm look sorta if ya know what i mean, so im going with the clear sides instead of the amber. the amber ones do look nice though. im ardering them right now as a matte2r of fact.

and SCGMafia...thanks for the reassurance lettin me know they do atleast look good. i feel a little better now, i just dont know how theyll hold up. hopefully good. but we'll see. i think theyll be fine. i will run a bead of silicone along the seam where the lens meets the housing though, just to be safe.

good deal man, well theyre on there way to my house, so when i get em ill take some pics, and after i get them in ill take some more.

ill need to take off the bumper to get them in right? or is just the 2 screws on the radiator support?
