Do a proper conversion, get a h4 housing retrofit an hid projector so you won't blind other drivers. Sake Bomb garage did a hid conversion before

The words "eBay" and "good/quality" simply dont belong together.

Those are not good, these are real HID conversions https://www.rx7club.com/group-buy-pr...ht-kit-995538/

https://www.rx7club.com/group-buy-pr...trofit-960435/

Ask them first if they're still making one, I think SakeBomb Garage is doing it for FDs

Yes they're expensive if you don't have the money to do a proper conversion just buy hella, cibie or bosch 200mm h4 headlamps and some quality bulbs.

Projector housing is the only way to go to avoid blinding oncoming traffic.
