Headlamps???

I was looking around and saw a couple of the 2.2CL's with projector/HID headlamps. I think those are are nice for a CL. Does anyone know if the 98 Honda Accord 2/4 door uses the same headlamp? I am going to look around for these cars on the road to get a visual, but if anyone knows where to get them let me know. I would love to have dual halo's with projector/HID (black) headlamps.

No other car shares headlamps with the 1st gen CL.

What Matt said. The accord ones will not fit without major modification. All the projectors you see on here are custom fit. It's a pita best to buy a junk set of headlights get some projectors from ebay and try it out. Just do a search on here. You will find tons of info on it. Good luck.

Yep, Brian's right. The only way to get projos on a 1st Gen CL is to do it yourself... The most commonly used projo is the TSX. A couple people (maybe only 1, I can't remember) used the E36 (IIRC, but it was definitely a BMW) projo.

guess i'm off to the junk yard! It has been very tough to find parts for this car. Hmmm thought! Changing the front bumper, fenders, and headlights.... ? Wonder if that would be an option. But then again this would be more expensive than just buying the parts and building them myself.

Search around, it's been done. It looks like shit, but hey, if that's the way you want to butcher your car, be my guest...

I've seen a couple that were done with a professional look. they are sweet. I don't know If I personally have the patience. I changed my timing belt in my garage in about 30 to 45 minutes and didn't check a single thing. Just jumped in, started the car, and took off to the store. then again I have been greasen wrenches for over half my life now. Honda's and Acuras are not that hard to work on.
