Wow, Bat Bill's post really reads funny now. I'm not sure I want to know what we're talking about now!!

..and I'm pretty sure we don't want to see a pic of you "rear turbine" Bill (is that what you call it now?)

Reviving this thread again.

Those whom have now installed a set of headlights, which make and model worked for you? Looking to install a set on my car and the ones I have are too long/big.

Yeah, these are REALLY long.. like 4" too long where there isn't even a slight chance to get the headlight to point forward

is it possible to recess them back further make the opening a little deeper?

I look at it on the weekend but I'm sure you'll have it solved by then?

Those look like the width that I need... Are those 88-89 civic lights? Mine are way too wide which means the front of the lens can't sit flush against the cut-out opening. It's like trying to fit a 6" long stick into a 4" wide shoebox

Think I still have a Honda Civic headlight in the garage somewhere. Post up the dimensions of the opening and I will check measurements for ya

I know this measurements have been posted before - wasn't there a whole thread just on this topic?

Here are the "fairly" accurate measurements from the inside edges of the cut-out opening where the light sits flush against the body.

Here's an 88-89 Civic drivers side headlight.. It looks correct.. but it would be great if you can confirm the measurements before I buy a set
