thanks man... its amazing how much feedback they got. I pulled into the purple orchid on 61st and passyunk saturday night (one of the spots in philly) - and a lot of people commented on "my headlight kit" how much was it, who makes it - etc. I felt good sayin i made it, and it cost less than my shift knob! :P

AWWWW, ya didn't tell them it was cheap aye? you could obviously make a killing selling kits . All I ask is for 5% of your profits for helping to push you along to your goal. In turn you'd be sponsoring my company that I'll be creating when I graduate from college some time from now

THey look GrEaTTTT!!!11eleventwentytwo0I'm prolly gonna keep the pop-ups if I don't buy the silvia so that's a nice alternative to though I am partial to that look

the white one is prolly the one from importfan. its pricey... 300$ without lights. -- east bears i think uses square lights and is more like 1000$ or 800 or somethin

Actually, Eastbear lights are round and are pictured on the white 180sx above. The square lights you are likely referring to were actually made by Abflug and are no longer available to buy new. You MIGHT be able to find a used set somewhere but don't expect to pay less than $800 bucks for them. For that price you could get D2S Hella 90mm HID units and fab up a bracket to mount them like I did. They rock and are so bright that I shadow almost everything else on the road (except for Acura TSXs and S2000) which are probably the best projector units on the road in terms of intensity and beam pattern.

i dont know crap like that--lol

I do know that they're pricey either way, and i dont care that much since my lights are WAY brighter than the stock craps. im gonna hate takin em off for silvia front end in a few weeks. They'll go on the convertible i still hafta find. If i cant find a good one tho-im goin with a 95-96 s14... anyways... get your screwdrivers ready, and buy some lights... its fun time!

I must have this!!! Beats the hell outta paying 280 bucks for the real thing. Or, if folks want to be REAL cheap, just a peice of uber black headlight cover with 2 holes cut in it.
