after market headlights

DiGiTY · 07-05-08, 07:43 PM

last night i saw this sick honda civic (about a generation or two old) with BMW/Angel Eyes/Halo style headlights... where can I get something like this for my Acura RL '96?

I think halos do not exist for the KA9, it would have to be custom done. Halos are for BMWs anyway on any other car especially the KA9 it would look tacky.

what's KA9?

is this what u mean by custom?: Hella Optilux 2500 Angel Eye Lights

what about it exactly do u think makes it tacky?

tacky=ricey

it looks like it doesn't belong. now doing retrofit headlights can look good, but don't put the halo rings on them.

Pretty much the only place you can get aftermarkets are from your own hands... These cars are old enough that we wont be getting any sort of aftermarket parts UNLESS there is a rather large (50-75) list of people paid up front, on a waiting list, with an agreed upon company and style... I know right?

custom HID, LED, CCFL specialists - retrosolutions . Go to store, then to Angel Eyes. The store owner is said to be very helpful with any questions or issues you have. And I too think it would look ricey. If you don't know what KA9 means I think you are on the wrong forums.

KA9 is the chassis code for G3 Legends (aka Acura RL's 96-04) KA7 are 91-95 G2 sedans, KA8 91-95 G2 Coupe. Angel eyes are not my favorite look on these cars, but it's your ride so you should customize it the way you like!
