Does anyone know anything about fixed JDM headlights for 3gens?

I've seen pictures, but every time I contact a JDM distributer they either don't know what I'm talking about or they say that they've never carried anything like that. HELP! I think they are the same as JDM Civic headlights, which would make it a lot simpler, but I have no idea.

When I finally find where I can buy the headlights (and hood/fenders/etc.) that will be my first exterior modification. The thing is, I don't want to do any custom mods because it costs too much for labor (unless someone around here wants to help me do the work :D)

If you want a picture, go to:

I don't like my flip-up headlights anymore... I've had to replace the assembly once, and now I have to do it again!!! :burn:

here is a link to a site that sells front clips of the jdm version.

They have one clip, have had it for a while, and want too much for it. Fix the flipup.

I don't really care about the price that much... maybe I can even move it down a little. I'm tired of fixing and tweaking my damn headlights, it's so annoying! And I want something that looks a little different that the other 200ish 3gen Accords in Olympia.

You also might want to reference this thread also on the topic of the JDM lights (http://www.3geez.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10483).

Also, another interesting tidbit of info. After reading up on the japanese Honda site (www.honda.co.jp), I've found that the 3G Accords over there are mostly flip-ups, while there is a separate model that has the fixed lights. This fixed light model was also the one exported to European countries, and some other countries in Asia.

Lastly, here are the pics of the Schneider Motorsports Accord that I posted in the other thread.

There are more accords in the UK with the fixed headlamps than the flip ups.
Only the AERODECK's got flip up lights:smokin: the 4 doors got the fixed headlamps with JDM rear lights.

I have attached a photo of the fixed headlamp version (my old B20a parts car(now cut up)) next to my AERODECK

Those are REALLY nice pics of the Schnider M.A. Accord... I want one! :crying:
(I guess I won't be able to move the price down... I read the other thread. Damn.)
