yes but you would be wasting time and money trying to get some cheapo aftermarket headlights to fit. That money would probably be better spent on a projector retrofit. If it was that easy to fit accord lights in, alotta people on this board would've already had em. At least they make depo blackhoused headlights for our cars

I saw those yesterday on an accord, didn't look good on the intended car. I'm not into the 3 light thing... you're basically paying $110 for two questionable projectors with halos.

Yeah those lights would not fit on the CL, the corner lens / piece is the complete wrong shape.

custom > cheap and easy.

the harder it is to do the less people have it.
