OK, I saw these on a Sileighty conversion a long LONG time ago, and haven’t been able to find them since. On the US model the rear side window panels say “240sx”, on the 180sx they say “180sx”, I saw some that said “Sileighty”. However I’ve not been able to recall where I saw them. Does anyone know where to get these, I’m sure they are going to be rare and hard to find but I’m willing to pay for them.

Need some help and thanks.

There were actually 400 or so factory sileightys produced (could be wrong about the number).

They might have "sileighty" on the panel, or it might be an aftermarket/custom panel.

If they are a part from the real OEM Sileighty, good luck getting them. That's like trying to get a part from a 400R or something....

Yeah, there are very few "Sileighty" bits, but they look cool with their cursive writing on the rear bezel and 1/4 windows though.

Yeah, I didn’t have hopes of getting actual OEM panels. However I think I’d be able to get some of the “fakes”. I’m planning on building a Sileighty replica out of my 92. And I thought that those would wrap up the “JDM” look very nicely.

Well, keep me posted please if anyone happens across these.

I'm hoping to get all the correct placement of the badging and all, with a hint of aftermarket mods as well. So by summer 05' My car should be completely done. As far as motor, I'm not really gonna do much that way I will still have reliable driveability. I'm going to have the motor rebuilt and the T25 swapped with a T28 ballbearing turbo, diffrent exhaust possibly, and upgrade the ECU and get some tuning, then get the majority of all the SR bolt ons.
