There is a difference between cheap aftermarket and APC style aftermarket. I think he's refering to the APC kind of stuff, since that's what most people buy anyway.

I know the difference. I just don't care for asinine comments. Oh well.

Unrelated question: Has anyone ever gotten an 18x8.5 to fit in the stock front fenders of a 92-95? Fender wells are already out if that helps. I'm sure people have their oppinions of what they THINK will or will not fit, but I'm seeking a response from anyone that HAS TRIED or SUCCEEDED in fitting a wheel that wide on an application such as this. Reccommended offset would be a plus.

And Jinx, sorry to hear about your car being stripped. Insurance cover any of it?

Thanks for anyone with helpful input.

find the lowest sittin point in your head light n drill a small hole in it so that moisture can escape it did wonders for my mustang headlights n saved them from yellowing.

Yeah, insurance is taking care of it. I may not get my car back though. Anyway, check the back of your headlights for black rubber seals with short hoses. Make sure those are pointing down. I don't know if 5th gens have that, but my GSR and Civic both do. My friend changed his headlight bulbs and didn't check to be sure those hoses on the seals were pointing down, and they fogged up and leaked. I turned them down and it cleaned up and quit leaking. Maybe it was coinidence (sp).

hmm.. no need to pull apart the headlights and re seal. you can just run more sealant on the existing seam
