the regular civic headlights you gotta drill to get the city light sockets in, but on the Real JDM headlights the holes are already there, and I believe they hook up to the driving lights or to whatever you want, but mostly its hooked up to the running lights.

You just splice into the wires that run to your parking lights. I have them on the hatch I just bought, they're definitely dope.

You do it in the headlights. You live in Yorktown don't you? Give me a call sometime and I'll let you check mine out. I'll pm you my number.
