Non-pop S13 headlights FOUND!

I just sorta stumbled upon these things a few days ago after searching high and low to find them for months...I wasn't really wanting anything i CF, but it's the only way they make it.

I talked to one of the guys at C-Wings (forget his name) and he said that they are in the process of developing another kit that will use 2 separate rectangular headlights, and have a clear plastic cover for the kit. He also said that the openings for the lights are 2 1/4" in diameter, but that the lights used in the picture are not made anymore, and it's getting to be really hard to find any fogs that are 2 1/4" diameter.

Not sure how big i am on the rectangular light look....I would like to see a prototype before i make up my mind, but i think i will likely buy these, and try to make a clear cover for them myself, since I don't really want anything to shatter one of my fogs.

flip ups are ub3r 733t

Wow they look great - the first picture looks like they *do* have a clear cover. But yeah, I would definately want a cover. Two seperate sizes would look nice too, like projector immitations.

Anyone know how the DOT feels about something like this?? I mean can you just up and use foglights for headlights?? <shrug> I have no idea what their requirements are for headlights.

Looks better then the Baer set IMHO which sells for 3-4x those.

not sure on whaT DOT thinks, but the lighting with just foglights there is HORRIBLE.

Sometimes the people on the boards make me sooooo happy! $300 bucks for headlights, that is sooo awesome. I am overjoyed as I have always wanted East Bears but have never wanted to blow 850 on a set. You're the man now dog.

[Kaioshin1982]

do they come with the light? or are they selling just the CF housing....

[Radian]

No, you buy them as per what the site said:"This is designed to use round fog lights or your choice, compatible with most types, please see detailed pictures to understand how they will mount to the base. Designed for FET mini lights." They don't look like they have a clear cover either, the last photo is telling.IMHO using fog lights for headlights is going to give you a horrible field of vision. Fog lights are designed augment your headlight's spread, not as stand alone lights. They do make driving lights in the same format as 2 1/4" fog lights, but those are still not ment as stand alone lights.These would be ok for a show car, or a city car where there is always ambient road light, but not for someone in a ho-dunk country town.Of course, real carbon fiber is extremely sexy.

Very nice, I can see theym on a 2 tone grey coupe .

Looks like they're selling the "housings" only.

I did see a post about a guy that made his own "version" of that. He took the flip up's off and welded some metal in place to sqaure off the front of the hood.

You're the man now dog.

So says Sean Connery

I have to agree with Radian, Foglights as primary lighting is uber bad. Aren't the EastBears expensive because they're projector lights? Don't remember. They don't look too shabby though.

Me, i like my sleepy eyes

[240sxHitman]

may be there is a way to get that and turn them upside down and do sleepy eyes and have them sum wat like this



and for the lights maybe go to a junk yard and find sum 94 and up integra lights if you cant find the fogs. but i dont even know if the integ lights are 2 1/4

[drifts14x]

that's a good point

Somebody find out about that...

[MR2NER]

There's a guy on ebay selling a housing kit like that but they're not CF and they're only 50 bux.http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...=6763

[silkk]

that looks better than the one at the top

[whiterps13]

yeah right, look at the lighting with those bulbs.. you would be lucky to make it down the street at nighttime

werd. Actually, sleepy eye pop ups are ub3r |337...

[jrc90240sx]

Well i want to make a kit like the clearcorners. its going to use 2 90mm projectors. If everything works out i am going to sale the complet kit. It will also alter the lifting arms so that the lights only come up to a sleepy eye location that the beams are setup for. It will most likely be a carbon housing also.

werd dawg

[drifter_for_life06]

i love the best of both worlds i want the kit posted in teh pick by 240sxhitman

[UTWarrenG]

which post/kit was that?

links?

[drifter_for_life06]

you referring to the projector type sleepy eyes?

[gogg]

That ebay set looks like the stock headlight with a cover over it to make it into 2 circles (like those headlight cover things they sell)

[drifter_for_life06]

blah thats cheesy IMHO

[rico05]

you referring to the projector type sleepy eyes?

No, I am referring to the "I cut the brown wire on the headlight switch" sleepy eyes. For real...spend money where it counts not on gratuitous body mods (ie rice).

[jrc90240sx]

I want to make them look pretty close to these. They are made by ClearCorners. there base kit cost 1k and the HID kit is 1.8k. If everything pans out as i plan i think i could sale the normal projector kit for around 600, and the HID for around 1k-1.1k all the stuff for HID is expensive. the lights will be more equaly spaced, and i want to try and make it closed as much as posable. once i have them made i might try to make some flush mounted head lights, but i would most lilkly run a clear cover and they would look a little like the newer NSX head lights with the bumps over the lights (but thats still aways off)

[drifter_for_life06]

i was just wondering what he was referrign to. i dont plan to get those lights anytime soon. cosmetics is the last thing i wasnt to pull off the sleeper look.

[PantherRacer]

there's an integra going around with 6 fogs as headlights....wonder how that lights up tha road....the guy was 16 when he first got that thing... it was in import tuner....fixed rite up....I tell ya....good motivation goin in tha wrong direction lol...

but imagine if he had gotten a 240....6 front fogs...maybe 4 sets of pop up lights lolol

[drifter_for_life06]

hes a ****tard

[aa87]

I wanna get the CF one and get hella OEM HID Projectors, mmmm, great lighting, but i would also want a clear cover, maybe tint it a bit, it might cause a bit of glare, but its alot better than running foglights.

[Asia989]

dude ur jus better off buyin the eastbear kit from phase2motortrend its expensive but its worth it, and dont bother with importfan, im still waitin on my front bumper (3months now)

[dvd]

jrc90240sx: i'd buy the kit if you decide to sell them But yeah, i saw those lights on a site that sold HELLA products and they cost about 500 for 2 sets? I think.
