    sorry jim i never saw anyone on THIS baord talking about it i only saw it at the board 2 boards ago and last time i asked no one had ever heard of it besides me. thanks though but my car isnt worth putting 3500 into lights. 500 maybe but thats way to much.

    ps if your that worried about wasting bandwidth dont bite my head off for failing to use the search but instead goto the off topic and yell at nate for pinnng that kid to the wall for nothing.

    WHOA! I did NOT bite your head off. All I said was I found the anwer using the search engine in 2 minutes and gave you a friendly wave. I even gave you the link you needed, yesh. I go out of my way to help a ton of people in way's I do not see on other automotive forums.

    The point of my reply had NOTHING TO DO WITH BANDWIDTH!
    It was a hint that you were asking someone else to do work to find something, when you yourself weren't willing to make a effort with the search feature. All I did was type prelude conversion.

    Hey hondactec I really like your car. Did you have to make a custom hood for those headlights to fit? My friend had a 5th gen prelude and he got in a car wreck and the headlights were still good. Is there a how to on your website? (instalation and doing the hood) thanks a lot

    I saw the White one (Chubbs from Tantrum Racing) in NY and it was pretty nice. I didnt really care for the skyline tail lights but the front end was done nicely. You have to put up the money for good body work.
