onepiecers w/o brezel on G2 sedan

KevinKA7 · 04-21-04, 08:03 AM

Hey guys,

I´m suggesting on getting onepiecers for my G2sedan. The only ting is that I hate the plastic brezel inside it. Does anyone have pics of a onepiecer sedan without that brezel? I´d just like to see how it would look, before wasting money, cause my stock headlights are more beautiful that onepiecers WITH the brezel, I think.

Opinions and Suggestions welcome.

Thanks in advance

dude are u sure u know what a bazel is?? cause if you toook that out it would look like theres nothing behind it but metal braces holding the lens in. Plus the USDM headlights have the same bazel as the JDM only diff is the JDM is all one piece, no seperate corner light.

--update i just read your location so now i guess u have EDMs right?? so ya you have no bazel but the answer is still the same u cant really remove the bazel without it looking like crap.

maybe he's talkin about the yellow diffuser for the fogs?

Brazil?

Anyways... if you removed the chrome section, there wouldn't be anything to hold up the glass lens. Then your beam would be totally glared.

Also, with out the chrome part, you would see the insides which is the back part of the housing, and the chrome projectors...

If you don't like it, you can black it out...

i think he just means the diffuser

If he meant that than the answer is you can't remove it unless you do some sort of projector conversion. You need that fluted glass diffuser as that is what gives the reflector type housing its beam pattern.

Hey guys, seems as if I have to clear some things out:

1. Yes I have EDM headlights.
2. I meant that plastic frame that holds the lenses. Brezel because it looks like one and you say the same for the guage cluster brezel, sorry, English is not my mother language)
3. You´re right, after having a close look to the USDM headlights (never saw them close before) it´s not good to remove it.

So the result is that the only ones i would replace my current ones with, are JDM onepiecers with chrome plastic cover brezel thing (or whatever you call it)

Thanx for the replys and detailed pics.

I know people like the change the headlights for cosmetic reasons and sometimes just to be different and have what the other countries have. I was wondering why you want to change out yout EDM headlights? For me, I had the JDM 1 piece headlight and believe it is the best looking headlight followed by the EDM then the USDM falls a distant 3rd. For performance, I think the EDMs are the best, followed by the JDM, then the USDM a distant 3rd. I ended up swapping out my JDM for the EDMs and was more than please with them. To me, those are the best all around headlights for the Legend.

KevinKA7 · 04-22-04, 07:04 PM

Yeah, I guess I´ll hold mine. A JDM swap would charge me too much for the small efford.

I just like the clean look of the JDM onepiecers.

I´m about to install real HIDs next month or so, so I´d like to have clear headlights. But I´m sure they´d look good on EDMs too.

Does anyone know if the diffusers are glass or plastic? --=Keith

KevinKA7 · 05-12-04, 07:39 AM

I guess on JDM onepiecers they are plastic but my EDM are glass

KeithQNguyen · 05-12-04, 08:24 AM

Kevin, you mean the inner diffuser right?

Roger · 05-12-04, 11:36 AM

the inner diffuser on the JDMs and on the USDMs are glass

KeithQNguyen · 05-12-04, 01:00 PM

DAMN... ok --=Keith
