wicked headlight mod, how?
 

ok im curious how hard this mod is to do, i love the way it looks so im curious if its all custom modification or if theres some sort of kit or what? I really like the way the dual headlights look =)

There used to be a guy that sold the kits for $400. His site is gone now though. I'd rather have the two small round lights recessed into the body and have a permanent clear cover. Though that is still better than one giant flip up light.

cpracing.com has the kit that rids u of the flap ups.

i think someone said they took a miata headlight kit and made it fit for the 1st gen...

IIRC that is a miata kit

HTH

but I think the problem with the first link was that those lights weren't true headlights(didn't prroject well). right? as for the miata conversion, is there one for the 1st gen? that one just shows a kit for the 90-97 models.

Looks relativly easy. Gut the Stock lights, retain the stock motor and mounts, get some aftermarket lights and make some brackets to fabricate....

Might take some time but shouldn't be too hard.

You would need to make a new linkage, too. Otherwise the headlights will still open up big enough for the 7" bulbs. That kit for the miata works on a first gen, but Im not sure if you need to modify it to fit.

Yeah, they are the Miata kit. I don't think they look very good without the black plastic surround. For $400 bones, I expect it to be clean and bolt in.

Hey... thats my car.

Yes... this headlight kit is for miatas. There is minor modification.

Well then you have a very nice car:D What kind of mods do you have under the hood?

Thanks...

Is a 12A Turbo..... check out my page.

Wow, took a look at youe cardomain page very nice(nice background:p:.) .

I dig the dual rounds in the flip up... I dunno why, but I like the flip up lights. I would like a plastic surround for em though... Not that hard to fabricate though...

I don't like how the person who installed em on the Miata said how the beam pattern sucks... Beam pattern suckage isn't good...

Wonder how hard it'd be to convert that quad light to HID... Ponder ponder ponder...

Very. HIDs aren't plug-and-play, you'd have to modify the whole harness to prevent the risk of very nasty electrical fires.

damn i love your car sooo much great inspiration for my stocker, keep up the sweet work. Its definatly one of the sharpest 7's ive ever seen!

Thanks Dan.

Im thinking about chroming the se rims.... what do you think?
