I was holding off on buying these exact tail lights due to the wires. I didn’t want to do all that, but this video literally helped me. Bought them and set it exactly the way you did it. Awesome video, tail lights look amazing!
I just had to say "Thank you" for posting this video. It really helped me install these tail lights. Especially the part with what to do with the connecting wires. It was way easier to feed them up the interior of the hatch frame instead of the other videos that placed them up and around the frame, leaving the wires hanging down the center. I've had these lights sitting in the box in my room since February. Thank you so much, man. They look amazing!!!
Your very welcome!!!! I thought that other way of running the wires was cheap looking/the lazy way and I didnt like how it pinched the wires in the center. So after staring at the hatch for a long time thinking, i came up with feeding them up the inside of the hatch. I wanted something that looked OEM.
@@MoisesEmpire Definitely, man!! I hear you. Your way is soooo much better and makes the process look a whole lot cleaner and proffessional. I was a bit nervous because I drive a 2021 Hatch and I thought some things weren't going to fit, but thankfully that wasn't the case. I did get the V2 and they made connecting wires a lot thinner so it made feeding them up the frame easier. Good job, man. I really appreciate what you have done.
Really good instruction. Everything worked fine. It was not super easy, but in case you don‘t have only two left hands, it is generally no problem with your help 🎉 Thank you very much!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video. I want to install these lights but I couldn't find a video that showed this as clearly or as detailed as you. Especially thank you for showing how to route and hide the wires. I'm much more confident now.
damn them tail lights be fire. i just bought my 2021 sport hatchback on 2/19/2021 and i been looking at which tail lights to get and none of them look as cool as these ones. i am def gonna get them. my car is black also and it would look sick on it. imo. thanks for the review, i will def buy these ones. ill be getting the smoke version most likely.
@@carcez i ended up buying them off Amazon. one seller had them on there for under 300. i jumped at the chance and bought them. installed a few days ago. and they look amazing. i would say try other sites and see what you can find. definitely worth it imo. changes the whole look of the car.
First of all I'm super jealous sedans don't get sweet tail lights like that. Secondly, as soon you went to the cabin and I saw your shifter again I was like a kid in a toy store.....I WANT THAT! haha Your car is looking great!
Lol thanks man! These lights were originally designed for the typeR. Im just lucky that the typeR is also a hatchback so the lights fit perfectly on all the hatchbacks. Its an awesome shifter. I highly recommend it.
Thanks for the detailed installation and tips man, I appreciate it! Have you had any issues with these lights? Also are the reverse lights pretty bright and shows up in the reverse camera? Thanks again man!
No issues so far. All the lights still work fine and yeah reverse is pretty bright since its LED and i have the clear lense so its even brighter then people with the smoked version.
Already installed the tail light so cool for my civic ex 2021 thank you for the video and more power I'm looking to upgrade my rare bumper and looking for a diffuser any tips or idea? Thank you.
Not to many options for the hatchback. U could switch to a sport rear diffuser and re do the exhaust so that its center exhaust. Or u could add a rear diffuser like the one from downforce solutions.
Yeah. It comes with carbon fiber inserts for the side fins and I think they do come painted in either black, red, blue, white. They dont come in sonic gray for some reason so I had mine painted by a body shop. Absdynamics.com is the site to buy it.
There a ton of websites u can get it from. Just google greddy supreme SP exhaust for the 10th gen civic. I got mine through a local performance parts shop.
I checked online and it said these lights are compatible with 2016-2020 civics. Is it true, because I just got a 2021 hatchback in Nov and I saw someone with these lights and I thought these were the sickest set of taillights I've seen.
@@MoisesEmpire I really want to get the clear, but they're sold out. So, I think I'm going to order the Med Smoke and hold on to them, then try and get the Clear when they restock. If I don't get the Clear, at least I'll have the Med Smoke.
Hey bro, got any updates on your wiring? Still holding up strong? My girlfriend just got me similar tail lights (Archaic brand off Amazon) for Valentines Day. I'll be installing this Sunday.
@@MoisesEmpire Preciate the quick response, man. I'm super excited to do my install. Then having underglow installed next weekend. She bought me that kit like 5 or 6 months ago. 😅
@@Hunter-vb2kj I paid like 350 cuz of holiday deals but yeah I've had 0 problems with them. All bulbs still work perfect, no water or condensation in the lights, no fading and fitment is perfect. Really good quality.
@@MoisesEmpire good to hear. Thanks. My civic is lunar silver and the windows are tinted so i wish i could see how well the smoked version would look cause its on sale but i guess ill wait
@@MoisesEmpire you have any issues with the turn signal blinking way too fast when installing these? One light works fine and blinks as usual but the other is rapid blinking
@@MrUF504 wow it really is almost the same lol even same color except where u did red I did in a satin white thay has a rainbow color effect when sun hits it.
Actually really good considering their low price. I never had a problem with them working properly. Just a small plastic part inside one light started to separate and at a certain angle u could see one of the wires. That was probably due to the sun over time tho since my car lived outside 24/7. Other than that they were great! Always worked and were bright and never leaked or faded.
how do i hide the wire, i just installed mine yesterday and left the wire just there cause i couldn’t figure out how to hide the wire into the weather stripping lol
If you tried plugging the light both ways and still dont work then there is likely something wrong with the light and you might need to get a replacement.
Wing looks and feels pretty real to me 😂 and I don't think my car looks anything like a typeR but if you think it kinda does and its trying to be one then, thanks ill take that compliment because typeR in my opinion are really nice cars.

Thanks!! Its a really fun car. Your gonna love it.

Nice! I see what looks to be the start of some camo wrap action going on too!
Yeah I was gonna do a reveal of that first but really wanted to get the lights put on lol.
@@MoisesEmpire p
Hi just wanted to ask what type of wheels are you the car and the size ? great video bro
Thanks! ESR CS15 18x9.5
Are those taillights the clear or smoke version ? thanks
@lorenzoarroyo8377 they are the clear version.

No problem. I love them, the are 1 of my favorite mods that i have done. It really changes the look of the car a lot.
I also own a black civic hatchback. Did you end up getting those? they are out of stock atm. :(

They got some dope clear Tail lights for the sedan
I really like your videos
Thanks!!
I got the v2 i like you idea where you made the wire go on the sides. Might do that to mine today. 👌
Thanks!! I find it to be a much cleaner install that way.
What difference about clear and smoke
@@phonglam4889 smoke just darker. Plus some states they dont allow. Wish i coulda went with clear tbh
Thanks
Sooooooooo siiiiiiiiick everything about your sport hatch is fire!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks!! I appreciate that.
Ok into musicccc 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

@@lambo4677 thanks! Same to u!!
Yo im installing the same tail lights ,But my break lights wont turn on when i hit the break.
Maybe plugged in backwards.
Where were the break lights lights and fog light. Video was very helpful though, thanks
Hey man how did you get the animation to play when just unlocking the car?
It's a feature in the lights that is already there from factory. Newer versions of this light come with a switch to turn it off and on.
Already installed the tail light so cool for my civic ex 2021 thank you for the video and more power I'm looking to upgrade my rare bumper and looking for a diffuser any tips or idea? Thank you.
Not to many options for the hatchback. U could switch to a sport rear diffuser and re do the exhaust so that its center exhaust. Or u could add a rear diffuser like the one from downforce solutions.
@Moises Empire I have seen the diffusers from downforce solutions and they have multiple options but no pictures 😅
Cool vid! Where did you buy your white pinstripe for your diffuser?
Thanks. Got it at my local Autozone.
Which one would u prefer smoke verison or clear ones that are sold out 😭 i cant find clear ones
Clear. Im personally not a fan of lights.
Good installation video but unfortunately the ones they sent me were completely defective after hours of troubleshooting 😢
Dang that sucks
Yo where did you get the carbon fiber end pieces for the spoiler
It came with the wing.
Bro you need to buy on Amazon black door or carbon fiber ones there 24.99.. Let me know if you have question. But great job on the tail lights!
A black door?
@@MoisesEmpire black door panel covers.
@@shaunzee420 Im not sure what that is. U got a link?
@@MoisesEmpire look up theince carbon fiber door style door handle
Is there a way that the center light under the spoiler lit up too?
Thats the brake light. Only turns on when u step on the brake.
No full brightness test during the day?
I could show you the brake lights and turn signal during the day if you like. Message me on Instagram so I can send u a video tomorrow. @moises_fk7
Yo Umm did the Type-R wing come carbon fiber and painted black? If so u have a link?
Yeah. It comes with carbon fiber inserts for the side fins and I think they do come painted in either black, red, blue, white. They dont come in sonic gray for some reason so I had mine painted by a body shop.
Absdynamics.com is the site to buy it.
@@MoisesEmpire awesomeness, appreciate the info homie
How did you get that carbon cut out on th wing
The wing came with it.
Where did you get your wing from?
Absdynamics.com
Does this one fits on a honda civic sport touring 2020 verison?
Yes. Fits all 10th gen civic hatchbacks.
The top portions of the trunk tail light doesn’t want to light up as I’m connecting the two wires. Any answers?
Not to sure. That wire only goes in one way so it can't be installed backwards. Does the turn signal work on the bigger light?
@@MoisesEmpire It does. My mistake. Faulty wires from the manufactures.
Ok so u figured it out?
Just got the V1s. Are the brake lights bright enough during the day?
Yes I think so.
If not then may have to buy led’s
@@ruthlesstee8561 I installed them. With the center brake light you can see them fine. Thanks for the reply
@@trancethan nice bro
Where did you get your spoiler?
Absdynamics.com
Hey where do I find the exhaust that you got on your car ? I have the same car so can you please let me know 🙏🏽🙏🏽
There a ton of websites u can get it from. Just google greddy supreme SP exhaust for the 10th gen civic. I got mine through a local performance parts shop.
Damn those lights are nice, I have a CTR wondering if them lights are the same ?
Yeah they the same so u can get them for you ctr
the back is a sticker or painting I like the design if it's a sticker, where do I get it?
Its vinyl wrap. I made it myself.
I have the same color of car , are you painted the spoiler? Or came lake that?
I had it painted at a body shop.
@@MoisesEmpire where can I find a spoiler ? Because I have a 2020 HC hatchback and I need one because in the dealer is too expensive.
Anyone know where to get some clear Tail light for the 10 gen civic hatchback I only found some for the sedan model
I checked online and it said these lights are compatible with 2016-2020 civics. Is it true, because I just got a 2021 hatchback in Nov and I saw someone with these lights and I thought these were the sickest set of taillights I've seen.
They will work on the 2021 hatchbacks also. Body is still the same as older models. Their site just isn't updated.
@@MoisesEmpire Oh nice!! Appreciate the response. Sweet ride by the way. That camo is dope.
@@blackonyx1 thanks!!
@@MoisesEmpire I really want to get the clear, but they're sold out. So, I think I'm going to order the Med Smoke and hold on to them, then try and get the Clear when they restock. If I don't get the Clear, at least I'll have the Med Smoke.

Everything is still going strong and working perfectly.
@@MoisesEmpire Preciate the quick response, man. I'm super excited to do my install. Then having underglow installed next weekend. She bought me that kit like 5 or 6 months ago. 😅
They only got the smoked version in stock. I would get it but im afraid it might be too dark
I was in the same situation when i was buying mine. Im not a fan of smoked one tho, so I just waited till they had more clears.
@@MoisesEmpire hows it holding up? Dont regret paying $400 for it?
@@Hunter-vb2kj I paid like 350 cuz of holiday deals but yeah I've had 0 problems with them. All bulbs still work perfect, no water or condensation in the lights, no fading and fitment is perfect. Really good quality.
@@MoisesEmpire good to hear. Thanks. My civic is lunar silver and the windows are tinted so i wish i could see how well the smoked version would look cause its on sale but i guess ill wait
@@MoisesEmpire you have any issues with the turn signal blinking way too fast when installing these? One light works fine and blinks as usual but the other is rapid blinking
I am buying those tail light but do you have the V 1 or V2 civic hatchback?
These are the V1. The V2 have a different shape to the lights.
@@MoisesEmpire thank you man , just subscribed to your channel
No problem. Thank you!! If you ever have any questions just ask.
Are these the ones from Hirev?
Yes but I think they discontinued the clear ones like mine. Now they only sell the smoked version.
Sick camo wrap look the same as mine white type r lol even the same cuts lol
Lol really? Thats funny. I got ideas on the cuts from a few different civics I saw on Instagram.
Nice I did this last summer check out my ig escalante_r
@@MrUF504 wow it really is almost the same lol even same color except where u did red I did in a satin white thay has a rainbow color effect when sun hits it.

how do i hide the wire, i just installed mine yesterday and left the wire just there cause i couldn’t figure out how to hide the wire into the weather stripping lol
Lol u gotta lift the weather strip and tuck it under.
@@MoisesEmpire bro it’s so hard idk how u fit the wire in there
@@tubbyfk7802 lol Idk what to tell u. I thought it was easy to fit it in there.
How long did you have to wait for the item? Its out of stock right now.
To long lol. Almost 3 months because they were on back order when i got mine.
I like them but 430 is a lot of money lol I also really like my stock tail lights
Lol 430 is actually really cheap for tail lights. Especially custom ones with animation like these.
430 is cheap. It ain't t compare to other tail lights like 700-1k
U culd of put it in reverse amd put the ebrake om
I bought mine from Amazon and everything was working other than the reverse light. I did everything I could to fix it. Any advise?
If you tried plugging the light both ways and still dont work then there is likely something wrong with the light and you might need to get a replacement.
Nice
Te conpro las luces originales
No las voy a vender.
this foo said "MUGGIN" style tailights
Muggin? It is pronounced ME YOU GEN! A hard G like Gatorade!!!
I think this must be ilegal in EU like all the cool stuff
Lol maybe.
You can't see it when you're driving js lol
Lol u can at night. They so bright u see them in the reflection of the car behind u.
@@MoisesEmpire I was referring to the brake lights. Would of been dope if the running lights were also the brake lights
Oh yeah that would have been cool.
Not gonna lie the brake lights are weak lol
🤦🏼♂️
Fake wing. Fake Type R wannabe LOL
