i like this idea, i have seen it on 2nd and 3rd gens and it looks bad ***.
i would get it my self but you have to make it your self. and even if some one did make them they would prolly cost alot. becasue your replacing alot. with the non pop ups you have to get a replecement light housing that will fit in there and put out enought light for correct driving at night. its not good to squint.
i will look for some pics and post them

Replacement units with anything close to decent headlights will run $500 and up - and with 1st gens, that's as much as some people paid for the whole car.
The FD ones pictured above go for $800 to $1100 a pair depending on who's selling them.

Id be happy with the pop ups with an improved light setup. Not just an H-4 conversion, but more like two projector lights or something. Excuse the horrible terminology. I just installed a flush headlight kit on a friends Miata and it has two lights like the ones on the FD above, and they kick ***. So I would just be happy with two smaller lights per housing. That would be kinda cool .

get a set of proper HID units for them ... and get used to people flashing you to dip your lights and the flashin them back with another couple of hundred watts of light

Well, I'm interested in a flush setup, anyway. The advantages would include reduced drag, cool looks, and you could flash the "passing lights" without having to open the lids. There could (should) be a weight reduction involved with the elimination of the motor assemblies as well. The trick is to make it sell for a couple hundred bucks, then you would have people lining up for 'em.

I did some extensive research on this months ago when I was designing a flush mount kit. I couldn't find a way to make an inexpensive yet effective kit, and didn't want someone hitting a tree or something because I sold them crap

I am not cheaping out at all. This are hella headlight units designed for custom application with low and high beam units.
You just have to have good hook ups to be able to get them for reabonable price.
