I know you guys probably wont like this idea, but has anyone ever thought of the possibility of a civic headlight conversion on a gen3 camry using 96' civic projectors. I looked at some and they seem about the same length and height as our camrys. The only difference is that the housings are different and the civic headlight slopes more than the camrys. So it is a possibility that it could work, but there would be a fugly gap between the hood and headlight and between the headlight and the upper part of the grill where they touch. What do you all think about this? Should I try it or just wait until the actual gen3 projectors are made?

if you want an origional look, im guessing it will be about 1-2K of labor going with the civic projectors. but looking at what features sean is putting into these true gen 3 projectors, there aint no way im going custom.

heres what the ones CTMotorsport's will have:
1-corner light is incorporated
2-"angel eyes" around the high beams
3-relatively low cost

Sh*t, I guess the camry projectors are worth the wait. I just hope the overall design isnt ugly though. Id be pissed if weve been waiting this long for projectors and they are ugly.
