Headlights for a civic

Is it legal to use one of these headlights?
http://tinyurl.com/pxef

The headlights on my civic are turning yellow, and hard to see at nigh, but
my current headlights have a yellow cover on one of the sides, and the ones
from eBay are all clear. I am in Texas.
Thanks

 

Yellowing of the lenses is mot peculiar to Honda, many brands
have the same problem, caused by lack of maintenance of the lens
cover. Get yourself some of that stuff they sell in motorcycle
shops to clean cycle windshields. After you get them cleared up
use a polymer, like 'NuFinish,' to keep them clear, WBMA.

If you're talking about the 'turn signal' portion not being amber, you
could use amber bulbs in them (like the Dodge Caravan does for DRL in
Canada) It might be illegal to use white lamps for turn signals where
you are.

Good question. I wish everybody would ask themselves these questions
before installing some of this stuff....

I didn't know you could do that. But you know exactly what I am talking
about, now it is hard to see at night. The headlights have a light coat of
something and I don;t know how to get it clean.
I will check on that stuff for motorcycles.
Thanks

 

Right, I don't want to install it and get a ticket down the street, but I
guess the yellow bulb will cover me. I will try to clean my old headlamps
before buying a new set, since Honda sells them around $150 ea side, and the
aftermarket are $100/pair. I am wondering if it's worth it.
Thanks

 

i like the clear lens/yellow light setup versus the yellow lens/clear
light setup... my '90 prelude had red/clear taillights.... mmm i miss
that prelude.

Robert,
The wrecking yards are computerized, and can locate used headlights you
want from all around the country. Why not try that first??

WTF does that mean!?

Bwaaaaaaaahahahahaha. There is no "maintenance" to a lens cover you freaking
idiot!

Man...I wonder why you don't mind looking like an a-hole every time you
post? Oh that's right...you don't see it...

Seriously Mike, do you have any idea what your IQ is?

I'm bettin' you ride the short bus to school too.

 

i got a 96 contour and the headlight covers always turn yellow.. its the
plastic in them breaking down and causing a gunk on the outisde.. this
is what i did and it fixed it until the hot sun got to it again(lasted
about 6 months... $1.79 can of turtle wax Polishing compound at any auto
parts store... left thood open and taped around the bottom and sides of
the lenses to protect the painted areas of the fenders,etc. so the
polishing compound would not remove the paint from them... used a cup of
water and some old face cloths(the kind with the bumpy material works
best) wet the rag and applied some compound to the rag.. rubbed them
for about 10 minutes and then got out the old electric drill with a
polishing bonnet on the end of it and worked on each for about 5 minutes
more... i did this three times and the haze went away.... i also had
some head mounted magnifier lens and could see what i was getting off of
the headlight lenses.... it lasted about 6 months and the problem came
back.... do it again and you got another 6 months... the difference
when finished made them look like new......

 

Man...I wonder why you don't mind looking like an a-hole every time you

Doesn't matter what his IQ is. Reading your posts, yours doesn't seem to be
much higher.
Your posts are anything but constructive or useful.

What's wrong with you? Are you angry because you're ain't getting any?
If you don't like his posts, don't read them. just stop annoying everybody
with your stupid comments.

 

I posted your reply to the stations at all 26 of our fleet repair
shops. Everyone had a good laugh. LOL

I think they are. Aside from the sound advise I give, letting people know
when someone is giving wrong and/or giving false information, is *very*
constructive and useful to the group.

Any what?

No thank you. I will continue to point out bad, wrong, misguiding, and flat
out fabrications of information given here.

Take care.

nym-shifting idiot currently calling himself

Do you dare tell them about your trolling of USENET with the names
"Mike Hunt" and "Big Johnson"?

I thought not.

 

Definitely a case of HeleneDover... once again!!

This comes from DIZZY? The stations need an address to access
the net, those ARE some of the names. I always sign mike hunt to
be constant when I post from the different stations. Only a fool
who likes to get spammed, would use a real name/address in a NG

pontificated in

"Mike", we should talk.

*Nobody* savvy uses his real email address in a Usenet message. The correct
approach is to use a munged version of your real address, so if people
really want to contact you, they can, just by using a bit of human
observation when deciphering the munged version. Bots can't contend with
most munging efforts, which is why my address--unchanged for years--remains
spam-free.

There are actual, live individuals on the Internet who know my real name,
and exactly where I live (ask MDT Tech and Scott Lee Blair). That's more
than anyone can say for you.

You, on the other hand, *know* you are an annoyingly juvenile and
egotistical person and are therefore subject to killfiling, so you use
IleneDover, BigJohnson, etc. as bozo-bin subterfuges. It *does* work, so
you're not a total idiot. Close, but not total.

You have a dialup account with Penn Tele Data. You are in the 570 area
code. You dial up using an internal 56K Winmodem in a Win98 machine, so
you're using older hardware. This "satellite" stuff is nonsense and you
know it. Those roving PTD IP addresses put the lie to your assertions, but
you're obviously too ignorant to know why.

When will you ever get it? NOBODY believes anything you say. Your posts and
the replies to them are Onanistic more than anything else. They exist for
your pleasure and yours alone.

 

Hear Hear!

Hey Teg, why don't you let us know how you really feel? <g>

Not if you use fetch filters it doesn't. I don't care what he uses I
won't see him unless he does an exact forgery of someone I fetch and
there are few if any ISPs who won't act on someone doing forgeries.

"Thank you for contacting the Center for Auto Safety (CAS) about your Ford Aerostar or Windstar.
CAS has received many complaints from consumers concerning peeling paint, ignition switch fires,
stalling and brake, transmission and head gasket failures. Ford should drop "star" from Aerostar
and Windstar because neither is a star when it comes to quality."

 

(top posting corrected)

Duuhhh... That's not the issue, "Mike Hunt". It's the names you
choose and fact that you're constantly changing names to avoid kill
filters.

 

Well duh...but you can change them idiot. I don't think I would do business
with a company who uses such names.

How mature.

And only an idiot would use grade school names, then try to pass himself off
as some sort expert.

You are nothing more than a troubled teenager, with no self esteem. You are
also a proven liar here, and have been caught red handed.

No get out before we call your Mommy.
