Default JDM Headlights

I am interested in acquiring the JDM headlights but with so much talk of them blinding oncoming traffic i am not sure. Does anyone with the JDM's have any feedback on the "blinding" issue? I looked into the European but a lot of people say they are not the exact fit.

I really don't understand the big deal with the JDM units. I have a set on my own personal S2, I had a set on my 99' Civic SI, I had a HID set on my 98 spec Integra Type R, I had a set on my girlfriends 95' SI hatch, and have had no problems what so ever. IMO everyone make it out to be bigger than what it really is.

For the S2 headlights, you can actually adjust the height of the beam so that it does not shine onto oncoming traffic. How many people that say JDM units blind people have actually seen them in person? I adjusted my beam to shine perfectly fine.

I've been researching and cannot find a LHD S2 with the clear housing headlights. I have a connection in England but their cars are all RHD. Where do people find these "Euro" headlights?

If you are looking for JDM units, please let me know, we have them in stock ready to ship.

Thanks,

Brandon

Brandon,


Are the Japanese clear headlights a direct fit? No cutting/glueing? Thanks.

Tim at MG Racing sells them. I'm actually saving up money for those.

The JDM units are a direct replacement. The only difference being the turn signal bulb and socket. I used a genuine Honda bulb and socket, and they worked fine. If you search, I posted up the part numbers and cost.

I'm also working with my contact in Europe to bring in the "Euro" housings.

Thanks,

Brandon
