Just acquired set of headlamps from Japan and installed them today. The Q got the updated look with the crystal clear headlamps.

The headlights look great, but I don't like the eyelids at all.

I do like the looks of those tremendously!

Any idea if these are available for the 90-93?

Now all you have to do is drive on the left side of the road to avoid blinding oncoming traffic!

Which leads to another problem.

W.O.W. !! Those headlamps are a must!! Please, someone find out if they can be found for the 90-93. I don't see why they wouldn't fit my 92. And get Greg to tell us the fix for the "death by blinding" senario. Like to find out what Simmsled did...

I'm forced to wetsand mine, then clear coat them. I'll post that in another post.....

Looks awesome man! There is a perfect example of the ridiculous shipping from Japan, but I haven't given up trying to get a freight forwarder and starting to do palettes for Y33 items.

I really dig the looks of those crystal headlamps and front fender cornering lamps.



Definitely a fan!

Ok - noob question. What's the difference between 90-93 and 94-96?

Can the JDM units be modified to fit?
