Is this possible? I've searched but I haven't seen anybody even think about this. Kind of like Audi is doing with their new taillights, but with the headlight LED on the touring models.

Like Ford has done on the Mustang for a few years now also....

I feel like you can find something with a bit of googling, but I havent seen it that I remember.

While I haven't taken apart the touring headlights, for the lights to work sequentially, each LEDiode would have to be on its own circuit, something I doubt Honda took the time to do.

Using a room with 10 LED lights in the ceiling as an analogy, the light switch turns all of them on, or off. In order to have each light come on independently you'd need to wire 10 switches for each light.

VW GTis (2018) have this on their rear signals. One solid orange strip, moves from inner to outer. So d*mn awesome.

Yup, VAG cars have been just killing it with lighting lately.

But the technicality behind is the same, it's just added circuitry, which = $$$.
Vag ?? Haha.

VAG always nails the taillight game IMO. Audi lights have been some of the best for the better part of a decade.

Saw a new S4 with the sequential turn signals and nearly ran off the road... :love:

Yah their Matrix headlights are pretty damn cool too. I'm looking at replacing the Civic with a new Tiguan and the front cornering lights are pretty awesome as well.

Yes! The new Audi sequential turn signals are a thing of beauty, so fluid and clean! I would be using my blinkers every chance I get if I had one.

Those look cool! Did you get a response yet?
I did, and they are asking for $650 for the pair of headlights. Unfortunately, they don't sell the sequential turn signal module. I've been considering just sticking a sequential LED strip in the turn signal housing.
