are you talking retro fitting them, that is to say cutting the civic projectors to fit your car, or are you talking about actually having your car modified to fit civic projectors. if the answer is the later of the 2 then yes 1200 is about the right price you'll spend to do a headlight conversion. If your talking about doing like everyone else has where they have cut there civic projectors to make them fit in the mx3 then no 1200 is insane, and you could do it yourself really

Don't do the conversion unless you're doing a FULL conversion, by which I mean hood and front bumper. Otherwise it's going to look like poop. Just my two cents, I dont really like the look of the fully molded in headlights to our stock hood and bumper.

I would say do the civic conversion yourself BEHIND the bumper and fender... if you are going to do a full conversion with civic parts you might as well go buy a civic :roll:

if you want the full civic headlight to show that will look pretty stupid IMO because the shape of the mx-3 headlights is what contributes to it's own unique style.

save the 1200 go buy a set of glass auto adjusting headlights from germany, by a hid kit, and be done with it forever. you'll probably spend 500-600 doing that route

Or wait and see what the A-Toy ones look like for the MX-3 when they are finished making them.
1200 is too much for a cheap a-- Civic crap kit.
