Hello everyone.. in this video I do an HID conversion on the projector beam LED strip headlights I installed in Nov of ‘22. I’ve wanted to do this for awhile now.

Ebay sucks
Where do you live ? Can you install the headlights in my 09 Crv or who would you recommend
I’m in Long Island, NY. Any good competent shop with a good reputation can handle that job. Thank you!
I have this chirp in my Chevy Sonic. I'm going to check the plugs. Thanks!
👊🏼🍻
@@themechanic2.060 ~ I found one plug that maybe had a issue. It had some oil in the spark plug hole. Plug seemed tight but maybe it was leaking past the crush washer. I changed all the plugs while had it apart. Seemed like the right thing to do. Upon, test driving it afterward, I heard no chirping. I will pull the coil pack this summer when the weather is a bit warmer to check it again. Thanks again for the tip!
My pleasure! 👊🏼🍻🍻
Great video! I think I will put off attempting this one until I have more patience! I would have given up. Your channel has helped me with my gen 3 CRV. Would you consider doing a recommended tool list for someone starting out / favorite tools?
Thanks man.. starting out? I recommend the Pittsburgh 301 piece tool lit. It’s about 170 bucks on sale now at harbor freight. It’s got ratchets, sockets, extensions, pliers screwdrivers you name it. Great affordable tool kit. 👊🏼🍻
ughh 300 dollar headlights and they have the same issues the ebay $85 regulars have. (those are the ones I just ordered. they are just factory knock offs with with black inside like yours the previous owner had done some messing around in there and I'm trying to undo it all and get the lights looking somewhat normal again. He added blue strip lights above them and hot glued bulbs in places and rewired everything and now my blinkers stay on even when all my lights are off and the side markers are super fast blinkers lol. also my 3rd gen has fog lights too. the last owner had them installed by the dealership.... bUTTtt whatever wiring disaster the last guy did seems to have rendered them inoperable. my fog lights switch now turns on some blue eyebrow looking lights in the front. Needless to say I'm keeping my fire extinguisher in the back seat until I have a chance to rewire everything.
Holy Shit.. you got your hands full. Nothing like somebody doing some shoddy electrical for some BS.. your plate is full.. of re-wiring. Well good luck & please keep me posted here. Hope you can give a 👍🏻 and I hope your sub’d too. 👊🏼🍻
I have had a 2013 crv for about a year now. I had a flatethe other day and had to put on the spare. Guess what i saw. A puddle. I have noticed a musty smell on hot day though it was the ac. Yeah a stagnate puddle of water will definitely stink. Ill be implementing your fix soon . Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience
Thank you! I’m glad it helped. 👊🏼🍻
Thanks for the great detailed headlight swap, how are those Sylvania Silver Star Ultra bulbs holding up? thx in advance.
Thanks. They held up real good until I upgraded them to HID! Check the link below! 👇🏻 thanks 👊🏼🍻 Honda CRV HID/LED headlight/foglight Upgrade. ruclips.net/video/sTUKsMQFWh8/видео.html
You’re awesome,amigo . like you said, even the dealership didn’t know. Or at least the guy selling me the car. Keep up the good work, you rock.
Glad I could help out 👊🏼🍻 Thank you!
Or you can source a genuine Honda stanley brand projector headlamps either from Thailand, Malaysia or Philippines and it will be having a nice cut off.
Yeah, I wonder what the expense would be. Wouldn’t be cheap I imagine, but another option as well. And a factory one at that, but they wouldn’t have the LED strip. Thanks! 👊🏼🍻
WOW! Great video, and thoroughly explained, my 2008 CRV is doing this exact leak too. Might need to park in the garage for a couple months until I get some warmer weather to plan this repair out. I recently replaced my door locks on the 2008 CRV and saved myself some $500, so I'm all in on DIY. Now to watch everything else you've done!
Thank you so much. Im glad I could be of help. DIY all the way! 👊🏼🍻
What’s the estimated cost for this repair. I have a 2016 328i x drive GT with this same issue
Thanks for your comment sir.. in my shop in Long Island NY approximately 400 bucks. Subscribe for more 👊🏼🍻
Thank you. Really helped out a lot. I used the clutch pedal.
That’s what I meant 😂👊🏼🍻
Hey mechanic 2.0 thanks for the update. My daughter has a 2009 crv. We have owned it 4 years in the four years had to do four “headlight treatments “ she came home for Christmas break . I told her I’m tired of messing with these stupid headlight treatments. So I ordered the smoked glossy black housing similar to yours. However quick question I could not find on any website. I presume the yellow turn signal “preloaded” or comes with it when you ordered it. They arrive Friday . However I probably wait about a week to install due to my work schedule.
Glad you found the video, and good luck with the install! 🍻👊🏼
My daughter has a 2009 Honda crv she’s had it for 4 years now the headlights continued to “fog up” . We did the lens cleaner method three times in four years. Then I finally got mad and order “preloaded” projector headlights. Meaning they ship with the bulbs already in the assembly. She drives a lot at night and I promised her(last time) if the headlights would film/fog over I’d do something more long term. The new headlights are scheduled to arrive this Friday and about a week later I will install them on her CRV.
Glad it helped, I know it’s a pain dealing with headlights that fog up. I think you’ll be happy with your new ones! 👊🏼🍻
Great video quality, I could really see each step in detail. Love the strategy for getting this car back running quiet without breaking the bank.
Thank you.. Much appreciated! 👊🏼🍻
Your video is a masterwork!
Thank you very much! 👊🏼🍻🍻 Hope you’re subscribed!!
Awesome video. I have these same headlights so I decided I would give this upgrade a go as I am in some serious need of it. I installed the passenger side and plugged everything back in and no go for me. The bulb didn't light up. Not sure where I went wrong.
I’d recommend checking your wiring and making sure the bulb is seated properly, and if that doesn’t solve it, you could have a bad bulb (possible) or a blown headlight fuse. Good luck 👊🏼🍻
@@themechanic2.060 Thanks for the tip, after some tedious troubleshooting I found I did have a bad fuse as well as a bad ballast. One more thing I'm having a problem with is the high beam? Do you have another bulb installed for that or something? When I go to high beams the light just turns off. What could be causing that? Could it be that not both of the lights are working simultaneously which is preventing the highs from working? I don't know what could be causing that because the wires that you said control the flapper weren't touched (one of the little blocks that sticks to the housing came undone a long time ago, but it doen't look like they're hooked up to anything). Any insight would be appreciated then I'll leave you alone, lol.
Well, the red and blue wires that go to the heat sink in the back of the unit are for the flapper door.. and these units come pre wired for plugging into the cars harness which is set up for H4 bulbs, and their wiring is created to accommodate the H1 bulbs those units use. Triple check your wiring.. because it sounds like something isn’t connected right. Go back to the video and rewatch the wiring. I hope you figure this out. Good luck & let me know 👊🏼🍻🍻
What lights are the new ones? If you could type a link that’d send me to Amazon that’d be better thank you ❤❤
The new lights I show you are the ones with the LED strip. And there’s a link in the description to EBay. Thanks 👊🏼🍻
Then just hook it back to the reservoir and that it?
Yes exactly.
Thank you for this video. On my 2013 CRV I saw water dripping under the car where the spare tire is located. Sure enough I had water and frozen ice ( in the 17 temp /TN)in the well. Should I take it to a body mechanic shop or the Honda dealership? And do you know about much I should be charged? Thanks for any advice
I suggest you try and tackle it yourself. Your 4th Gen is the same in rear as my 3rd Gen in the video. If you’re dead set against doing it yourself, I recommend the body shop. I wouldn’t bring it to the dealership. As far as price I couldn’t even guess at it. Probably charge you per hourly rate. Thanks for your support 👊🏼🍻
How much where those headlights? Looks nice 💯
About 300 from eBay. Thanks.
After this great vid, new subby 😊🥳🥳
Thanks for subscribing! 👊🏼
Finally i found this video. I was looking for months a video about upgrade my crv headlights! Thansk so much 🙏🙏🙏
Glad it helped 🍻👊🏼
Thank you, thank you, thank you 100x1million times again!!! I have chased that dang chirp for 6 months. I was ready to be committed.
Glad it helped! 🍻👊🏼
At 20:54 what's the name of that part? Also what's the name of the hose?
Do you have the part numbers for everything that you replaced? Im doing that job now on my e63.
The heater hose connector part number is in The video. The only other parts are the intake manifold gaskets which you could order by application. Thanks! 👊🏼🍻
Best plans of Mice and Men - Eh? Shit happens!
Sure does. 🍻👊🏼
Had to smash the living shet out of my impact driver. Started to strip the heads of the screws. Caved in the door slightly. I had to resort to an impact driver bit on my air hammer to get them loose. Honda totally effed up on this one. There is no reason an impact driver should have a hard time getting the screws loose.
Exactly right. Total shit show I went through and sounds like you as well. Thanks for your support! 🍻👊🏼
@themechanic2.060 Air hammer with the impact driver bit. put the screw driver bit on the end of the impact driver bit that goes into the air hammer. .... this way you have more control of your impacts on the screw head and you can put a wrench on the impact bit to loosen the screw.
Thank you so much!! Just knocked this out in about 30mins using some permatex gray ultra.. didn't even know this was an issue till I watched this video and sure enough we had water in the spare tire well .
Thanks for the support! I’m happy it helped. 🍻👊🏼
@themechanic2.060 it would be cool to see some mods like say seat swap possibilities, different audio options,can a dual climate control work in a non dual system.
Great video. Can you tell me where to buy the garnish rings. I have tried 2 different online Honda parts dealers and when I order they both voided the orders and sent me email saying these parts are discontinued.
Discontinued? I ordered them from my local Honda dealer we use all the time. At the time of making the video, they were still available. Try you local dealer in person. They are NOT discontinued. STILL AVAILABLE. Left garnish pt#: 71106-SWA-920 Right garnish p#: 71105-SWA-920 Try Hondapartswholesale.com
Hi, you should change the weather strip and make it quieter all doors.
Thank you. Watch the full video! The weather strips are in perfect condition. The car is quiet. What’s bad is the belt molding. 🍻👊🏼
These headlights are such a waste of money and time. Soon, you will realize it, Nick.
Really? It’s been 2 years since I installed them and made subsequent videos on them and they’re still going strong and looking great. The only issue is the clear coat, and I’m going make a video on refinishing them. I really love them. In my opinion, no money or time wasted. I’m sorry you feel that way. Thanks for thoughts and concerns. 🍻👊🏼
Good job. I can see that you are a very clean person 😊
Ha, thanks! 👍
Did the Siberian poly bushings make a difference in handling? Killer work! Going to be doing all of this on a 4th gen
Yes. It took the the slop out of where it needed to be taken out. Thanks for your support! 👊🏼
Thank you I’m gonna mess around with a few of these combos thanks to you
Thanks for the support! 👊🏼 glad it helped.
Hi Nick, As you know Honda discontinued OEM foglights for 3rd Gen CRV since long time. So how can you say It's stock light and how can you trust the durability of these.?
Not true. Honda did not discontinue the factory fog light for the third generation CRV.. it’s still available and you can get it through your local Honda dealer. Remember these fog lights were a dealer installed option. I explain all of this in the video. So far the durability of these eBay Chinese ones are really good I have to say. They’re not fogging up. They are not taking in water and the lenses are still crystal clear. Thanks for your support! 👊🏼🍻
Great video. Can’t find the subscribe button.
It should be right below the video! 👍 Thanks for your support! 👊🏼
Thanks for the video. Had the same problem on my 2012 CRV and used your video as a reference. I ended up using clear “Flex Seal” to seal the plugs/holes on the exterior. Couldn’t find seam sealer for the interior seam, so I used Marine adhesive “5200” which is used on boats to seal that gap. Thanks again for the video.

What year is yours?
Thank you sir. I've subd. Use a heat gun to dry out ALL the water before you seal that inner seam!
Thank you !!! 👊🏼
I have an 08 CR-V myself. I am hearing a rattling sound in the back which sounds like the trunk door but I cannot seem to get it to stop. All bushings and rubbers have been changed so that's why I think it has to do with the trunk door. It's pretty constant when driving o the rough roads. Don't hear it on the smooth roads. Ohh, tires were changed too. I really would like to stop the rattling sound. Hope you can help.
Did you check the rear sway bar bushings and stabilizer links?
@@themechanic2.060 I did make those changes as well.
What I’m guessing is the hook in the back of the second row seat.
Are you worried about the hole you drilled for the HIDs? Like weather wise and stuff getting in?
Not at all. Since I published the video to this day, no weather has affected them. Thanks for your support. 👊🏼
@@themechanic2.060Thanks for the answer, thinking of doing this to my 2011 crv
Hi. Thanks for the video. How do these resist a car wash process?
Super tough. I have no problems. Thanks for your support and I hope you’re subscribed.!
There should have been a honda recall for repairs.
Hey buddy i picked up that 08 Cr-V!! Thought it just had a bad alternator but after putting a new one that i had tested and verified as working before installing turns out the system isn't turning on the alternator. All fuses under the hood seem to be fine,ever had any issues like this before?
Congrats on the purchase! Sorry to hear about the trouble. If you correctly verified all fuses are good, then verify you actually have power at the big lug at the alternator and power at the Field wire (exciter wire) at the green connector at the alternator as well. If all wiring and connections are good, all powers are where they should be, then try another alternator. Thanks for your support and Good luck! 👊🏼
Great work, sir. I did total front end suspension this year on my Mazda 6 and Sienna van with no lift. I was sore for 3 days cuz I’m old. I’ve decided to retire myself for future suspension work. 😂
