So the other day i was driving to wendy's cause, well, i was hungry. i get my food and there in the parking lot i see a silvia, or at least i thought. all i could see was the fron end sticking out, it was parked behind a car, so i drove up to it and low and behold, i was saying "wtf!!" it was no silvia my friends but some 2 door hatchback that looked like a plymouth colt or something, it was debaged so i couldn't tell what it was. but i started thinking to myself, i'm pretty sure you could go to the junkyard and find these headlights to fit on our 240's instead of buying them for like a **** load of money...i personally am not going to get these because i don't really like them much, popups own! hope that could help anyone out, i'll try and see if that cars there again, i'll take some pics next time.

Ha, that's an '89 or '90 Dodge Colt, or Plymouth Colt, and I think Eagle made a summit that was the same. I had an '89, it was my frist car when I turned 16.

see, the headlights look very similar to silvia headlights and even the wheels look like steelies. somebody should go to the junkyard and pick up a set and see if they would work, awesome if they did.

YO, IT WOULD WORK...JUST SOME MINOR CUTTING, GRINDING, SHAPING...MAKE SURE YOU DON'T FORGET TO BUY THE SILVIA S13 HOOD. THE HEADLIGHTS NEED SOME CUSTOM MODIFICATION TO HOLD IT IN PLACE. THE FENDERS MUST BE WORKED ON, TOO, SHAPING AND GRINDING!

that is by far the wrost idea ive ever heard in my life. Its bad enough people put s15 headlights on eclipse's and integra's, dont ruin s13 headlights by replaceing them with colt headlights.

here's the thing, even though some of you don't like the idea of having colt headlights, there's people out there that can't afford the actual triple projectors, so this is just another option for those who want them but can't afford them. i personally wouldn't get these headlights, but then again i wouldn't get regular s13 silvia headlights anyhow, s15 headlights, now those i would get.
