Headlight Kits?

I got a 1987 RX7, and have been looking for headlight kits for a while and haven't found too much I like. Either way, I'm always broke and would much rather try and do it for less then ordering some fancy pants crap off the internet. I was wondering if anyone has any nice homebrew conversions they've done..? Or pics of their fancy pants ones...

Heh.. Yah, I'm quite familiar with that mod although it ain't too safe and the cops around here hate it. I was thinkin' more in the ways of custom fiberglass buckets with some plexiglass flush with the hood, or some some scrapyard diggin for something that'll work nice from another model... No one does anything in the ways of ridding those ridiculous lights.? In all the pics I saw everyone just has them down... Whadda ya'll do when it gets dark.? You gotta bust em' out sometime..

you can get a pivot switch to move the lights up and down to your liking, or you can just put them up at night by plugging the motor back in.. kkthx0romgbai2u!1

Oh... I guess I forgot to mention that currently I rock the "super ghetto broken motors lights are always up style"... and I ain't gonna pay the couple hundred bucks for headlight motors.. as it is I hate when they're up at all.. I'd rather something flush with the hood...

Search! Search! Search! Seriously though dude there is a new thread on modifying the stock headlight setup every two days. East Bear, CWest, Knight Sports, Re Amemiya, just a couple of your options or you can fab up your own. Interior Exterior Audio will have a lot of threads as well on this.

https://www.rx7club.com/search.php

Use that and type in sleek headlights or something that. This thread has been rehashed a lot and you will find quite a bit.

Good luck finding something that you like.

you could try asking rx-7 store(linked at top of page alot...) about the headlight kit with front airdam kit..... the front lights (hella's i think ...) were cool .... buy them all by their selves...if it would work alone .....
