the sleepy eye look kicks ***. it makes any car with pop-up lights look better, IMO.

Being that we are now a "KINDER, GENTLER FORUM" for those who don't like critisism of the butcher jobs they have made of their cars, I will agree whole-heartedly with the above forum member.

when I first started learning about real japanese tuner style some years ago, it seemed kinda cool, but now it just looks lame. in other words, played out! BTW, the 240SX crowd has a lot of sleepy-eye fans, I used to have a 240 so I know.

if you are reffering to jsotelo's avatar, then I can tell you that those headlights are intended to be all the way up. It is however a 3D render so they may look like they are down a little. I have other pictures of the same car from Initial D (which is where the picture is from) and the headlights are always all the way up. Just so you know. Not trying to be a jackass here.

I know I'll probably get flamed. But I love my diamond cut headlights. But be careful about the one's on e-bay my bro bought me a pair and after a couple months the inside silver coating melted off and turned yellow. So I bought a set of APC one's and love them. Highly recommend them to anyone.

i think the sleepy eye looks okay sometimes, as long as you're not driving with it like that... perhaps if you just park let it sleep, you know.. or not

I would think about it if mine broke, but I probably wouldn't do it.

I think it would be cool to have something like a power window switch for the lights, i wouldnt mind mine to go down some for parking lots, and up while driving. I like either way, but if i had to have it one way, the barndoors would stay, i kinda like them.

I have them on my car. only cause i cannot figure out what is wrong with my headlight motors. They have new fuses (big thing with a rubber around it)

And i got two new motors from Mazdatrix. My driver side headlights flips up and down, non stop.

Is there a way to reset the motors?

Thanks guys, Markus
