thats what the knightsports kit looks like with out the plastic surrounds? sweet. ive seen the knightsports kit before but i dont like the plastic around the lenses. i prefer the lights exposed liek in that pic. i was planning on building my own kit to look something like that, but **** that saves me the trouble, sweet.

The only problem is, How to make them go up to a specific height?

I know you can do it manually........

when/if i build a kit like that for my T2 i will get a Pivot headlight controler. ive seen the 180sx guys in japan use em. its a little electronic gizmo that controls headlight hight. as far as i know the headlights still retain their up/down motion but how high they come up is controled by the little box. now i just need some cash and i can actualy work on my FC

That's a picture of a Miata.

Funny thing is that that kit goes for something like, $300. I've heard the Knightsport kit is pretty much the same damn thing and the cheapest I've seen it go for is $800.

I have to wonder if the kit for the Miata (can be purchased at www.flyinmiata.com ) can be modified to fit an FC. Methinks it can, but I'm not ready to throw down $300 for the experiment.

There ya go guys, if anybody actually makes it work be sure to do a writeup and let me know about it so I can archive it.

I've wanted this headlight kit for a long ******* time, it looks very good. I'd do it but headlights are last on my list at the moment.

Those aren't good looking and serve no real function... :shrug: You'd be better off getting some H4 housings and PIAA bulbs....

who owns the car in the pictures? and no that is not the knightsport kit...because the lights are sitting lower than the stock flip. the knightsport kit make the four round but keeps stock height when it opens up. anyone know who owns this red car? i really want a kit like that for my headlights...
