does anybody know if anyone makes a black housing 1 piece projector headlight for a 96 accord. i like the second one of those pics. i showed it to my friend with an accord but he wants a 1 piece, so if anyone knows a company who makes one like that hook me up with a link please.

just got the black housing ones put on my car...they look AMAZING. hella better than the stock ones. if you get em put in clear turning signals too, i think they're street legal so long as they're in the front.

oh and i dont know if this is true for everyone, else but for me installation was a huge pain. beware.

I hope you sealed with clear silicon before installation to prevent future leaks and fogging.

Get the JDM black housing headlights. Projectors suck when it comes to light output. Trust me.

There is no one piece headlight for the 5th Gen Accords. There is 1 piece for the 4th Gen Accords though and they are the Stanley ones that come Accords in Japan. www.autodynamic.com sells the Stanley one piece for the 4th Gen.

Most if not all aftermarket head lamps are not made to the same standards of true OEM. So it can leak water into it or fog up. That is why its best to seal it up to prevent future hassle. Cause if it does fog up you'll have to remove it to dry it out then reinstall. So might as well seal it up the first time.

The #2 pic is better IMO.

i got clear turns and clear corners and the box said they were not DOT approved or whatever so i guess they are not street legal but you see trucks and everyone going with clear corners and such so i dont think cops are gonna hassle you to much
