Nothing "fits" the mx-3 besides an mx3 headlight. You can take projectors out of another cars lights, and fit them into your headlights, or you can do extensive body work to mold the entire, foreign light, into the body shape. Niether is easy, or "cheap", and both require patience. I just need to get the balls to buy a set of headlights and projectors to start my conversion....

Or you just get some projectors from a 2001/2002 Honda Civic, and slightly modify the housing.

You do not need to modify the body of the car, only the civic projectors. GregeryChristian did it
