These punks were lucky I didnt catch them.
5000 in damage for 1200 headlights & they only got one light & two ballasts (ignighters). Whoever did the passenger side was too anxious & destroyed the bulb in the process it was left on the ground in that debris

I'm so sorry to see that, its so unfortunate.

FYI, 06 and 04 grilles have completely different measurements. I test fit an 04 grill on my 06 and it was about an inch short left and right (04 grill is too small for 06 opening).

I cannot believe that crap... It looks like they took the assemblies but probably only wanted the projectors and ballasts because that lens is cracked. Damn man I hope they catch these bastards.

Stay with the 04 front end.

Sorry to hear that. I hope one of those fukkers falls on the tool they used to get those headlights out of your car.

Hmmmm....weird

Does the OEM alarm sound if the hood is opened?


Why didn't they just break the window, climb in without opening the door, pop open the hood and work the headlights from there?

Yes, the oem alarm would sound if they crowbar open the hood or use the hood pop level while the alarm is still engaged (after breaking glass).

Also, to correctly remove the headlights, you need to remove the top cover piece and the whole front bumper.

What scares me is it looks like they knew all that and knew that, without regard to the property, that was the best way to get them. *shudder*

Def. not a pro job.... The car would have been towed and completely stripped... But more than likely some punks ass low-life who wanted the "awesome" TSX projector retro fit on his Civic!!!!
I swear! I thought I moved up form this kind of shit when I sold my 91Si and bought the TSX... These pics are hard to look at!
