Love the 3rd gen. I have a 89 myself. Your videos are nice and mellow, no loud in your face with anything, props to you for that . Oh yea, you can work on your Prelude when your an adult too, Ha … any specific hardware/preventative advice on the lip and skirts to prevent water or even future rust ? 🤙🏼✌🏼
The 3rd gen Prelude is one of the greatest cars ever made ..... A true unsung hero & a childhood icon of mine. Cheers ! Edit: More videos of this car please ;)
The high beam light still doesn't work on mine after I installed the LED headlights I think its just the nature of the LEDs. But love the OEM look with the new lights giving the 3g a new feel.
@@ConnorLee yeah .. It will be a minute. The prelude is living under a car cover but some day my boys and I will work on it…. Some day, hopefully before this become adults.😁
Hey I would definitely recommend using nokya h6054 housings. I just installed them and they’re amazing. They’re a bit on the expensive side but it totally does the trick with leds!
Hey...not bad...yup, cluster bulbs and do your parking , interior bulbs as well...youll be happy...ebay or amazon...keep turning that wrench...one love
Hey I’ve been watching for a handful of months, and I love the prelude content. I’m considering picking a 91 si up, however it’s an auto and i really want a stick. So if I were to manual swap it, what transmissions are compatible and would be easiest to swap out? I had someone say it would be easier to change the engine and transmission to a newer generation, but I don’t think I have that kind of time or money at the moment. Any help would really be appreciated!
any 3rd gen trans will bolt to any 3rd gen motor. Essentially you just need to find any 3rd gen transmission. If you end up with an 88’/89’ trans you need a clutch and pressure plate to match the trans for those years. Same if it were a 90’/91’ transmission. Hope that makes sense!
What should I do if my tail lights r not coming on after I turn my headlights on? for some reason they turn off right when the lights pop up. its so weird bc i just got new bulbs. is it A fuse?
hey connor! head gasket is currently blown, where do you purchase parts for your prelude (engine related) or do you know where i could get a head gasket for my 1991 prelude?
Hey connor would you be interested in buying another 3rd gen lude fixer upper/parts car? Theres one available right now in california? Let me know i can give you the connect if interested, its a 90-91 3rd gen , black 5speed.
missed the prelude videos :) they’re always so nice to watch i love the shots they’re really well organised
Thanks Matt! One love

Such an unsung hero. Well put.

Yeah so maybe it is the leds 🧐
Just a heads up, Philips has a decent square LED lights and looks good.
I may have to try these lights on my ride!! The lights look good, thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for watching! Lemme know if you like em

I believe the projector part only works for a halogen bulb since those light up directly as to leds only shine to the sides
You bring up a valid point sir

yo connor what side skirts do you have for the 3rd gen? can you send link?
they’re 1990s honda accord skirts im pretty sure :) he has a video for everything he’s done to it where he explains and shows how :)
Yessir I pulled those off a 94 accord at a junkyard. Cut them down a bit and bolted them onto the lude. Got a couple videos on them
thank you so much you two!
@jaycee i might be interested. Which city is the prelude in?
Dude youre back
Hi 😁
Hey...not bad...yup, cluster bulbs and do your parking , interior bulbs as well...youll be happy...ebay or amazon...keep turning that wrench...one love
Those bulbs on cluster are so dang small lol
@@ConnorLee i know lol...do em all, dont forget you can get diff colors...yay-yay !
How do I know which bulbs to buy for each? I wanted to reboot all the lights on mine but I’ve stayed away from electrical tbh
Cant wait to get my prelude 🤗
🤘🏼
When changing from stock to different headlights, how do i make sure it would fit snug?
Could someone link me good ones that would fit on a 89 prelude, and also do i need to change the wiring for it work with led bulbs?
The ones I used in this video would work for your application. You want to search for 5x7 headlights. A lot of cars used that same style.
You shouldn’t need to change wiring. At most you may need a reverse polarity harness
Awesome Video dude. Looking to do this soon.
🤙🏼🤙🏼

Better now!
I think so too! Thanks!
I am thinking about doing this myself. Did these need resistor for them to work normally? Or was it just plug and play?
What should I do if my tail lights r not coming on after I turn my headlights on? for some reason they turn off right when the lights pop up. its so weird bc i just got new bulbs. is it A fuse?
Sounds like a wiring issue. Do they work with the headlights off/not popped up?

I like the new lights much better! How is the new transmission doing?
Trans is doing great! Need to try to source new drain plug and fill plug gaskets from Honda but no complaints at all
