A front lip will make it look a lot nicer.

 

[mc360]

well im thinking about doing a 99-00 front conversion because i like how the headlights are and foglights so i will wait and see what happens. overall i just need a new front bumper because its hella chipped and some mounting brackets are screwed up

Love the cluster how hard was it to do

 

[mc360]

it wasnt hard at all just took time. and it really depend if you can get the harness plugs without the whole harness because they wanted to charge 150 for the cluster plus another 100 for all the under dash harness but i found one place that just cut the plugs off for me so i didnt have to buy the harness to. its just cutting and crimping wires together, i cut my plugs off and wired to the new harness plugs then wired both sets back to my dash harness so probably a 5/10 for hardness.

here is the wiring diagram

Just want to update with my new headlights and Jdm city light bulbs

 

[JohnS.]

Not really diggin the cluster or the color of the city light bulbs but to 99-00 tails and fog lights!

I'm interested in seeing a pic of the rear seats.

 

[mc360]

Why not there just like my blue hid. Well I will have to take a picture for you

 

[rayaccord101]

i love your cluster it looks sick. and i kind of like the lights a little too blue for me.

i have been buying turbo parts for the last year and i have finally got her bolted together and tuned and i have to say it is amazing to me. i drove 4 hours from guincy california to modesto california just for the tune at barbershop performance and anyone who is close to modesto i would recommend going to these guys they did a 450whp 300tq eg hatch with no problems while i waited for the dyno.chad barber does his job well and took care of me, he even ordered to manual boost controllers for me trying to get one before my tune but they ended up not being able to pick up either because it was on a saturday and the place was closed. Any ways heres a couple pictures and videos, also dont mind the ex badge on my trunk i found a trunk with a spoiler on it that i wanted and i like the ex badge on there so i left it

Diggin your hx! I have the same car. Did you put LEDs in your dome light? Im havin a little trouble since the bulbs for hx's are different from other models.

 

[mc360]

Ya there LEDs but I bought a strip and stuffed them in and wired them up. I need to redo them and buy a PCB with smd LEDs on it

Do you think you can help me out as far as the wiring goes? Im not a big technical guy, and the brightness of the standard bulb is horrible .

 

[mc360]

Ya all I did was wire up some speaker connectors to the ends of the 2 wires and slid them onto the prongs that hold the bulb in, LEDs only work in one direction so if they don't light up switch the 2 wires
