headlights
 
I own a 1991 240sx 3door and I want to replace the flip-up headlights with sunken 91 and up 300zx style lights. Does anyone know of a manufacturer who produces a kit for this project?

this has been discussed multiple times before...

EastBear makes the lights you are looking for, but they are rather expensive...

drnovascotia 10-29-2003 07:03 AM

Yeah, there are several of them

There is a used kit for sale on Ebay right now for pretty cheap, but otherwise you're looking around $1K to do that, which is what has stopped many people including myself from doing so.

Searching for eastbear and 240sx on google.com almost never fails, heh.

matt180sx 10-29-2003 10:24 PM

i dunno about doing it urself, but i do know of a kit. be forewarned, though; it's hella 'spensive!!:eek:

sorry, but that's all i know about low profile pop-up lights. then again, i never looked for much info about it. that probably doesn't help u, but i hope it does...:confused:

^^^ wow those look nice, but IMO keep ur headlights, jus go lazy eye, and buy something more useful

drnovascotia 10-31-2003 07:18 AM

you could do what I saw someone with a ford probe do, the kid took the pop up headlights like ours, and painted the headlight all black except for 2 circles, so when you saw it @ first it looked like it had special headlights, but when you got closer you laughed yourself so hard you peed a little at how pathetic it was.

I was thinking about taking some rectangle fog lights and putting them where the front bumper lights are.
Leave the pop-up lights down, and wire and angle them so they are my head lights.
I know they have to be bright enough but any objections??

matt180sx 10-31-2003 07:39 PM

i dont think that is at all legal, but i am not sure. i know i had a friend use fog lights in his integra headlights, he shaved the inner one and found a round H4 foglight to fit in the bumper, and he got hassled all the time, the cops said it was not DOT legal, but again not 100% sure

drnovascotia 11-01-2003 02:38 PM

I guarantee you there's some bullcrap law somewhere saying they must be between a certain height in the car, and it could look badass but I will bet it'd be more hassle than it's worth, easy way for any cop to pull you over.
