yeah, you can walk into a dealership and order parts, but probably only entire headlight assemblies.

i think people get most of their parts from www.hidplanet.com where you can buy projectors and bulbs and ballasts and such to make your own retrofit.

ebay for retro FTW. 90% of my stuffs were purchased from ebay. In fact, hidplanet is the same thing. People are selling their used stuffs. you incurred the same risk for bad seller either on HIDplanet or ebay.

LOL my friend has an 08 tc with tsx projectazzzz
i have a civic with 2 headlights. S2k's installed and tsx separate in case i need money i'll just sell those on any civic forum lol
about the s2k's, well no i don't go dumpster diving.
my friend works at an acura dealership and because the honda dealership is right across the street, he gets parts from there too and whenever he has some headlights he gives them to me for free haha
He doesn't know anything about projectors but he knows the "computer thingy" is worth alot :D
