Projector headlights

I was reading an old thread about how you could convert your stock headlamps to dual headlights using a kit that is built for a miata. so I did some research on the miata kit's and found this.


I belive they use hella 90mm projectors which is great for H.I.D conversion because the cut off on those projectors are Excellent.

I foun it here http://www.miatamania.com/Shop/ViewP...eIndexID=36473


It is pretty expensive but I think its worth it

Been there,tried that.......

I hacked up a perfectly good BrainStorm Miata kit and never did get it to work.The hinges and linkage are totally different and the shape was none too close either.Ended up leaving it popped up for a short time,then reverted back to stock before making my flush kit,using Hella 90MM's.....which BTW are huge and probably wouldnt work well in a popup kit.The 50MM units would likely be a better choice.
