Default After Market Headlights

Hey ppl any comments on aftermarket projector headlights for a 97 Civic?...I'm looking for a new pair..the one I have currently installed are no good...the Halo rings that act as the park lights don't work and now the low beam right side dosen't work..and the left side light fogs up when it's rainy...so I'm hunting for a good website from where I can purchase replacement headlights..and also..I need to replace the bulbs for the low beams..so what type of bulbs are best?...Any comments on these types of lights?

the low beam in mine take an h4 bulb, yours maybe different. use silicone around the seal of the lens to eliminate fog. and i have yet to hear anybody say that their halo's still function... ebay?

the low beams use a H1 bulb 55watts...wanna install 100watts but I believe they will burn out unless I install a relay...also with the halos I've heard talk that installing a separate switch to deal with them is a good idea..is this true?...I don't want my new projectors to have the same problem...so another question what's the difference between an H1 and a H4?

What's wrong with yours?? Foggy when it rains? bad headlight harness? halo rings don't work? dead already? low beans too dull?

My halos started crapping out left and right. The lights were also meant for a friggin 96-98. Ive got a 99-00 and it looked ok. To the untrained eye you woulndt notice. But THen the bulbs died and I couldnt replace them [:@]. So I went out to pep boys and grabbed some silver stars for my stock head lamps.
