Potentially stupid headlight question?

[civicqueen]

I'm not very savvy with this stuff, but I just love the headlights on the Touring model. Is it even posible for me to modify my EX headlights to the LEDs?

This is probably a silly question either way, but I was curious.

No, not modify, but replacement will work. You can either buy OEM LEDs and a harness adapter, or buy the knock offs. Also, you can retrofit your current lights, but that is expensive though it will be a unique look, potentially one of a kind.

OEM LEDS: search around, they run $600-$1000.

I've had my civic so long I remember when this stuff didn't exist and now I regret getting my touring should've just got ex-t and modded it

Not a stupid question. Because the low beams are projector on 10th gen I recommend swapping for an led bulb at least to start. I use katana h11s and they’re superb and only $50. They’re almost as good as morimoto which are 4x the cost. They look like below, the pic isn’t the best because it wasn’t winter when I took it

I've had the TRS Acura-style headlights and the output was actually really good. Not quite HID of course, but better than any drop-in LED. Cutoff was crisp and throw was good. However I now have the DEPO Touring style headlights in. I guess you could say it was a downgrade, but after this 5 month fiasco with TRS about never having a replacement sent I returned them for some $$$ back. But I'm actually content with the Touring style headlights. Still not as good as the jewel eyes but I live in San Francisco so I never really need to longest throw.

Who knows, I may order the XB headlights again for this year's Black Friday.
