they are 94-97 honda accord headlights.

they have 3 styles. stock chrome look, R33 style black housing, and these halo angel eye with projector style.

suites the r32 pretty well:)

i'm sorry... that looks ghetto. it doesn't even fill the hole properly. you should get an eyelid and cover that nasty gap... then it'll OK i guess. still doesn't curve the same as the indicator etc.

we don't have to worry bout DOT approvals on headlights here so we don't have to do ridiculous headlight swaps for compliance... thank god.

would be alright if you did a retrofit of the honda rear section and grafted into the front half of the standard r32 headlight.

well if it was a true projector setup, which i doubt at that year model - but it would fill that gap

the problem that the R32 owners in canada face is that their headlights need to be DOT approved to register the car (sorta like our ADR's that our cars are complied to meet)... its an american standard, and as the R32 was never sold in the US it doesn't have that marking on the headlight.

Also the angle of the light is slanted so that it doesn't glare onto oncoming drivers on the right... but in canada the oncoming drivers are on the left... again... sucks to be attached to the US.

so unfortunately you HAVE to change your headlights to something DOT approved like ghey honda lights, or S14 240SX headlights or something like that if you wanna keep your car legal. There's a company now that makes Garage Infini style lights over there, which kinda solves the problem.

At least the R33's ahve plastic headlights, so changing em to comply with DOT regs will be easy as.

you be my guest and tell me which headlight to replace it with that was ment for North American Cars... tried and true this was the best fitting amongst GTRCANADA.COM and we should know what we are doing.. we need this to pass our inspection legally.

lol sorry martin, i didn't mean that to come across the way it did. I know you guys have little to no alternative, so I can empathise... but if you're gonna rock that on the street every day I'd get some eyelids made up to blend it better.

I'd say those ones that the company made up using a cover and two round lights to replace the headlight looks better.

I'm sure if you were given the option to run standard lights you wouldn't even think of using accodrd headlights.
