hey they make sleepy eyes kits for your car. it's a dial that manually controls the up and down of your headlight. you can make it as open or as closed as you want.

I've never done it because I'm not crazy about it's apperance, but this is what ya do...

1st way:
take out the fuse under the hood- it's closest to the drivers side fender, and is pink.
go under the car and find the turn dials on either side under the headlight motots and twist them to the desired height

2nd way
take out the fuse
turn the cleaner **** on
tap the fuse in and out quick till it's up high enough


yea.. the 2nd way isn't the smartest even though it's faster and easier

Another 7 with broken headlights.

As if our old 80's lights are enough even when fully open.

I wonder if FD's go through this 'sleepy-eyez' bullshit.

why do you guys have to be so negative about what other people like for the looks of their cars, friggen anoying, if you dont like it dont bother posting unless its a post on your opinion, people on her with your rusted out rx7's talking about how ugly somthing somebody does to their car, go get a paint job
