Sorry to bring up another post about these. I didn't know there was one already. I haven't read mch about these. So basically all this is, is 4 rings? How does that work as light wise. I don't really want to put HID's in there because of the squirrel spotters in the light housing. But the other hand, the retro fit from the RSX is very pricey, if im not mistaken.

Oh. At quick glance, I thought there were the full housings. But if someone is going to open up the headlight housing just to install these, they might as well just do a retrofit.

They are crap. I guarantee you that the rings will burn out in less then 6 months. You don't drive a primered Civic so don't get them.

These look like the cathodes you get on 80mm cooling fans but made in different sizes for the car. I used to use the 80mm round cathodes on the original Xboxes I used to mod.

I don't think Rice is the right word. Perhaps Bratwurst?

Halo eyes = BMW. It's clearly not right when you have them on any other cars.
