yeah, you really should FIX your car before you try to modify it in any way.

^^nice drifto action there.
like i said, you could get some low rise bulbs that are more powerful such as the ones fc3schick sells. then you only need to have them up halfway!

peace

1. With the headlights up (but not on) take off the black shroud surrounding the headlight. You should see one screw below, and one screw to the side of the headlight that are made for adjusting where the headlights are aimed.


thank you and the other person that quote my words.

By the way, just showed the lazy-eye look to my g/f... asked her if it was "cool or gay". she said "well, neither... but what's the point?" I say "to look cool. does it win or fail?" and she replied "eh... pretty much fail."

bah too many stock bodies in here..

jus to get an idea how it looks on my car.. i drove with it a few times, general idea was that i didnt really like it, just doesnt suit the rx7 as much, the front isnt angled enough to me


i did it a shitload on my old 240 before i got rid of it

I think the brightest idea would be to pull the retractor fuse and do it that way...

If you really like the way it looks then switch to the aftermarket switch and do it that way.

Because If you spend all your time and money on a switch and then dont like it...then you just wasted time...

I Also think that people who put these on go through phases...they like it one day...then dont the next...

lol, mine already had a switch/**** to control the headlight height already wired up in the car, makes it super easy to go with the sleepy eye look whenever

It's called the sleepy eye mod.

Calling it lazy eye makes it sounds like your car has downs.

Sorry but it looks terrible and makes lighting worse. if you wanna do something cool make the headlights come up 3/4 of the way and take out the stock bulb and use 2 round lights in each side that looks nice IMO

The previous owner of my FC made a stock looking switch for the sleepy eyes.
I have to turn my lights on, and then push the switch to on for a second to make the headlights pop up normaly. If I would press the switch on and off very fast the headlights would stay half open.
I never tried it, because I saw alot pics where sleepy eyes looked horrible.
But after reading that thread I'll try it to see how it looks on my car

If you have that switch and then don't like the sleepy eyes, the switch can still be used to make the headlights light trough the FTP lenses.
