Ls teg jdm headlight conversion

[vtegra]

how would u go about doin it?
would you change the inside of the light to look like the jdm newer version OR
would u take the actual jdm headlights n try put them in by cuttind into the bar or wateva to be able to make them fit??

has anyone done it?

[ACTI0NMAN-1]

your 1 pieces are the same as JDM. its just the fog/yellow and wiring thats different. USDM has the 3 piece.

Just a Tip try searching...It isn't hard to find what your looking for on the internet.
www.g2ic.com <<< everything for our cars is there

i personally think they all look mongy..

[INTEGGRA]

I dont mind them....But wouldnt spend time/money putting them in haha,If i had them in id be happy but i dont and it doesnt bother me...personally i think the stock JDM one's are best looking out there even over the angel eye's.Same goes for the rear lights.

[ZeForce]

DA integra with DC2 JDM headlights looks awesome.... whats a rough estimate on how much that conversion would cost?

[vtegra]

i dont mind the jdm ls light conversion, but the circle lights makes the car look longer, id rather fit the lights in
hmm yeh i wonder how much n how to go about doing it as well.

[Boy_Integra]

Pwooor..! That yellow one is puckin hawt! :thumbsup:

[INTEGGRA]

Price?

Well for the ITR round head lights you'll need g3 fender, hood, bumper, radiator support, g3 hood latch, headlights with harness, and alot of welding.

For ITR JDM have to modify fenders. Move the radiatior back about 2-3 inches get a different AC condenser.Make a custom line to connect the new condenser to the old line a whole lot of cutting behind the lights weld onto the hood cut the middle upper part of the bumper and the lights..

Depends if you DIY or not.....be cheaper to by a 93+ Teg

[tofu R]

gee.. thats kinda cool =P

[vtegra]

the da9 with the jdm lights look awesome, il be definately thinkin about doin it

That is a hot front, but the rest of the car doens't suit. IMO, you shouldn't go against the lines of the original honda design unless it flows. I dont think the dc2 teg front suits any other car but the dc2.

[vtegra]

yeh i agree, but ud have to change the rear bumper to make it suit, n put sum skirts, it shuld look alrite

[INTEGGRA]

Not worth the amout of time and money not by a long shot if you wanna change the headlights buy some angel eye's.

[vtegra]

true im gona have to agree with ya

[INTEGGRA]

Unless you got money to burn? haha then its ok...or if you can do all the work yourself then it be worth it aswell but still there isnt much change in the end result after all that work...

How's your turbo by the way? Did you have to do much else to it? what engine is it?

[vtegra]

na na i dont have a turbo, but i just recently finishd my h22a swap, it is really really good

[vtegra]

[[T][L]]

are you planning to take it to the strips?

[vtegra]

il pm u man bc we r off the topic

I just think the headlights on the DA tegs are too long... One or two inches shorter would look much better IMO.... Any cheaper ways of achieving this? I was thinking of buying one in the future, but the headlights do annoy me quite a bit...

[INTEGGRA]

I LOVE THE HEAD LIGHTS!!!

but a cheap way you can make them look abit smaller is eyelid's but length ways not sure....spose if your hardcore you could shave over where the parking light goes on the side....hahaha id like to see that done...the high beem is in the middle so you cant take anything of there...

[vtegra]

well like u said use the eye lid, just make cover it abit more

[ZeForce]

What are the inner most part of the headlight used for? Can this be covered up?

[FR33K]

2nd high beam (or fog light in some cases)

[joyride]

geez it took me a while to see what changes were made.
da9 shell with ITR and JDM ITR headlights :o

[tegboy]

I guess the old school CRX headlights would be able made to fit with work. They are smaller, they still retain the feel of the JDM Integra lights though

[joyride]

but which bonnet would you use

[ZeForce]

Perhaps its possible to get some vents similar to the 4th gen prelude made up to fill the gap?

[INTEGGRA]

All this work for head lights that look fine? i|If you dont like the head lights on a da9 dont buy one...its the main focal point of the car.So why change it?

Your entitled to your own opinion and Im entitled to mine... I like the general shape of the DA integra and its back end. I just think the front, mainly the headlights, could be improved...

So if you dont have anything constructive to post, then dont post anything at all.
