To answer your question, Ebay lights work but they don't fit the greatest (can't really tell from a distance).

Those lights won't fit your 4 door. Sedan lights are much bigger. Search ebay for like "honda civic 4 dr tail lights" and you should get some.

Are the headlights the same way? Does the 2dr differ from the 4dr? Thanks

Nope head lights are the same thankfully.

When 4 door tail shopping, make sure you pay attention to the year. 96-98 is different from 99-00.

please don't get chrome tail lights. They dont go with your car at all. There is no ither chrome on your car and they will stand out instead of flow with the rest. +1 on tinting the stockers. I'm a fan of black altezzas, I have some on my car
