Default New gal with a quick question

I am the second (and might I add VERY PROUD) owner of a 1991 Civic hatchback base model. I bought her almost 17 years ago, and has been my DD ever since. She's fairly stock, with the exceptions being 17" rims, stereo, dang near limo tint, and a 2.5" exhaust. However, the headlights are cracked and I have been looking into halo projectors as a replacement. So my newbie question is...can I use the factory wiring harness to hook them right up? Or do I need to buy the adapter?

most kits for your car will come with a little box that works its magic, that box will have one plug that will plug into your stock harness and one plug that will go to the new lights. At least thats how all the ebay HID kits ive set up works. takes like 15 minutes.

I'm looking at a kit on Ebay, and it says that it's "lights only"

best bet is to contact the seller and ask what it really comes with. I am not 100% but i am pretty sure you will need an adapter box...

Also this should be in lighting section of forum

I searched the lighting section and didn't find anything for my model year. Suppose I'll start a thread over there
