Ebay Headlights

[StreetNewb]

haha ran into another awesome problem! So I re-did the left headlight using the second one I had bought from the junkyard. Put it all together, it looks pretty decent! Go to put it back on my car and notice the brackets completely snapped off!

This is the part that is broken off on the other the left light:


I'm not quite sure what I should do. Should I sand down the snapped off part, cut off the bracket from my other left light, and bondo/silicon that onto the other light? Or should I just silicon the back of the light to the car? Sounds welfare, but if I ever wanted to switch lights I could just use a blow dryer or some kind of torch to get it off I'm sure. The right side of it still screws in, but the entire left piece completely wobbles.

Any suggestions?

Well that pic is kinda fuzzy so its hard to tell what the hell that is. But I don't recommend gluing anything to ur car. If it were me I would just go get another headlight from the JY (or that piece that needs to be replaced).

yeah I don't have a good camera. That was the last light from cb7s at the junkyard haha. Even if I went to get another I don't think I want to blackhouse my 4th headlight -.- lol. I think I might bondo on some strap to both the top and bottom of the plastic part of the headlight and have that strap wrap around one of the bars near the headlight assembly. That should work

The ebay projector one on the driving light with a regular high beam look good i may wanna get those for my car or spend the extra money and get JDM cb7 1 pieces.

i got those bad boys, with the chrome housing :] looks and is constructed very close to OEM. glass housing!?!?!? CHECK. nipples!?!?!? VERY MUCH SO. the output with those is pretty good as well. gets my approval.

There's one floating around that's better than the rest. That might be it.

Still, not very good.


However, if you wanted to do a retrofit, those cheap lights are a GREAT platform to start with.

not very good when you compare it to near/top of the line projectors like a TSX/beamer/S2000, yeah of course

but in its own right, they are very well constructed and i can see very well with them. the people who actually own them can also see very well with them and have given these projectors positive reviews. one such user "loud92cb7" has pictures of output.

why you gotta downplay these underestimated projectors each time a thread involves themmm, deev??? :< lol

and yep, you can totally retro these if you decide to go for higher-end projectors. very good base to work with

Alright so I've ordered some ebay tail lights and I'm extremely happy with how clean they look. Anyways, I was looking at my headlights the other day, I was about to blackhouse them until I noticed how screwed they are. There's a massive chip on the left one, and inside the right one, the reflectors look like they have veins =/.

So I found these on ebay from the person I bought the great tail lights from:
http://cgi.ebay.ca/90-93-ACCORD-PROJ...item5adad9a637

Anyways I noticed it says 90-93 accord, but they look like 9293 lights? My headlights don't have huge poles sticking out of them so I was wondering if they would actually fit my 91 cb7 or not, any input? Also, I notice I will be switching from 2 pieces to a 1 piece so the 2 top electrical clips must be for the corners, correct?

If you don't think they'll fit I'll just run to the local junkyard and find some half-decent looking headlights to blackhouse.

Nooooooooooo dont get those projector they really suck, i had a pair of those even with HID's and they light less than stock

[rayaccord101]

Yea i would juss stick with oem headlights and blackhouse them, or juss get jdm one piece headlights. Its funny ho u bought the last of the headlights in the jy. My jy has cb7's to last a life time.

Found 'em . Only thing is that the corners are ugly as skunk but they're 2 piece so I'm sure you could still use your stock ambers. They're cheap too I'm going to buy them for giggles.
