clear head lights

There is no need ofr dual Bi-Xenon, the Bi-Xenon is a high and low beam in one unit. So either dual 90mm: one reflector (high beam) and one projector (low beam, Xenon or regular) or one Bi-Xenon projector.

Agreed, but he stated he wanted dual units in his housings (bi neons").

Dual Bi-Xenon is useless.

I'd rather say over-done, excessive, overkill, redondant but by no means useless. I believe my config will consist of a BiXenon and a Xenon high beam.

Ok, so you'll have two high beams, but I don't think anyone, the police in particular, are going to appreciate it if you have two low beams. Even if you aim them the same it will blind oncomers.

i heard that you could fit civic projector headlights on an mx-3? If so, what year civic would fit an mx-3 the best?

True!

chicanoboy235, Welcome to MX-3.com. Unfortunately, I will not answer this question as it has been answered multiple upon multiple times. Go through old posts/threads, use the search function. All of your questions, for the most part will be answered. This means you have approximately 1/2 to a full days worth of information to sift through. When that is done and you still have questions, pose them, and it will be self evident then, that you have in fact done your own research and you will recieve a generous response to your query. Welcome, good luck, and happy reading.

Hey Jeff K,

That was exactly where I was 2 years ago. I ended up trying both ways.
Here are the pictures I took during the project:

The pictures pretty much tells the stoires.

Album: Headlight sanding:

Sanding by hand took about 24 hours each side and even then it was distorting the beam and shifting the color hue out of the light's output.
(can be seen in picture beamwithlens.jpg. beamnaked.jpg is the output straight from the projector) Taras, however, managed to retain a perfect beam with his sanding.

Album GTS Lens Transplant:

Then I went ahead and cut out the stock headlight lens and glued GTS lenses on them. I used "Marine Goop" as glue since it cures soft. This is to avoid the lenses seperating due to acrylic GTS covers and stock lexan lenses have 3x the difference in the thermal expansion coefficient. (over here summer and winter temp diff can be as big as 70oC) The joint is covered with a black trim of paint and the entire front lens was then covered in headlight protector since the GTS covers were acrylic and thinner.

These are the lights on T-Rose's car now. As Tyler was a lot better with pics here is the final product on Tyler's gorgeous mx:

Nope, you will have a Halogen high beam instead as you need those for flash-to-pass function during the day. Xenon is not good for that due to warm up time. You can always hook up aux Xenon spot lights for down the road illumination.
