New Civic Hybrid Owner

[ADExternal]

Welcome Glenn! Modding starts small and from the sounds of it, I'm sure you'll eventually personalize to the way you want it no matter what kind of civic it is. Hope to see more of your progress in the future!

Thanks for re-posting this. These headlights look amazing. I absolutely hate the orange reflector and even though it is much more subtle on the 2013, it still needed to go. Glad I live in a state that doesn't have yearly DOT inspections. I'll post pics tonight.

A hybrid eh? Looks like you should be in the market for some super lightweight wheels... to improve that mileage of course! Drop it a bit to improve the aero and get even better mileage. Hahahaha

Finally, after a nasty storm that blew through, I have some pics. Granted, it was getting dark, I am not the best photographer and I was using my iPhone, but I was able to take some pics for you all to see. I will take some better ones tomorrow.

The 2013 Hybrid LED tail lights are wicked cool!

One thing I want to change, though, now that the projector headlights have been installed is the turn signal bulb in the part of the light that reaches into the fender. I should have figured it was going to look weird and it does with the amber inside turn signal and white outside. Since the headlights alternate between inside and outside turn signal, I do not like the amber than the white. I would like to find a chrome plated amber bulb as to not ruin the look of the headlight, but I will have to find a place that sells them. I will look this weekend locally, but if someone knows a reliable place online, I would appreciate any input.

Yes they are. In fact, they are one of my favorite parts of the car.

Amazon is usually a great place. Especially if the item is stocked/shipped through amazon. They usually have a good selection of bulbs, ... but I'm not sure what bulb part # you need for that model headlight. I just know I've seen those color changing chrome bulbs there.

I'm going to try to get the bulb out tomorrow. Is it possible to remove without removing the headlight?

Edit - Here is the type of bulb I'm interested in getting if anyone was wondering (size will probably be different):

Nice car! Idk if those foglights come in all 2013s or just the hybrid, but they look cool too!

Thanks! They are hybrid only. It's 3 LEDs per side.
