New xenon-look H1 high beams, 24-LED (!!) amber turn signals, and PIAA Super White LEDs for the side markers complete the look. JDM? no. Sweet? yes.

Thanks everybody. To prevent the fast-blinkers and light-out warning, I installed a 6ohm resistor across both turn signals, works like a charm. Big ups to rex for tips on the leds and TSX.Fury and jpt for helping me fix up my car this weekend. I'll look forward to showing this off at the DC cruise next weekend.

As Reach said the dimensions of the 04/05 are different from 06+, as well as the angles....Sure the smaller one will fit in the larger opening but will look
Measurements from my very bugged up, dirty 2006 front headlight below.
Front View

Side View

dimensions are plus/minus 2mm given that the light is curved.
dimensions taken with flexible steel ruler and digital calipers
for you imperially inclined peeps:
130mm = 5.1 in
150mm = 5.9 in
230mm = 9.0 in
80mm = 3.1 in
365mm =14.4 in

May I ask
1) Where did you mount the Load resistor to in the front, I heard it gets very hot.
2) Where did you purchase the 24 LED amber bulb + 6ohm load resistor?
Thanks

BoomPlusToys everybody, and the prices are right there on the website. Warning, it ain't cheap. The only reason I could justify doing this for myself was because I already had a busted headlight and insurance paid me to buy a new one... so i ordered jdm and drove around busted for a few weeks.
Also, all bulbs and resistors were acuired off eBay for next to nothing.
But now, I'd do it all again hehe.
