These are the new head light lenses for the 95-96. Supposedly......is that a word?....oh well any way they apparently are not DOT approve. Like any of us give a s***. These come with the corner lenses too. All you have to do is heat up the seals on your stock ones and unlatch them take them off and put the new ones on and reseal them. I waited 4 yrs to upgrade mine. I almost thought about upgrading to the r33 but its to much of a hassle to make them look right. Does anyone have any more info about who exactly is manufacturing these and when will they be available and how much?

Those arent S14 240SX headlights unless you do work to put them on. You can see that the headlights are more slanted on the left. They make a 45 degree angle, where stock 240s make closer to a 20 degree angle.

obx does talk about them on there web site, and in 3 different finishes too. but under pricing and avail it just says tba. they will probably be around 300 dollars if you compare them to the rest of obx's lights. i am definatly gonna look into them when they come out though.

Those are being made by some company, i think in japan. There is a guy on 240sxforums who's working on a deal to ship them and sell them to people. That is unless he made up that story and he is trying to sell the OBX ones. I'll try to find the link on 240sxforums but i think you need to be registered to view it.

Thats the thread I got them from. He sounds like a b.s.er but I wouldnt judge him because of it but it sounds like he knows more than he was telling. And the headlights still look good to me. Iv'e seen someone put accord lights on a 240 and a mx6. It doesnt look right. This is a good alternative to people who dont want to do a front end conversion or anything. I know I dont. These headlight would make it look more like the r33 which is a good thing. Ide proly pay about 300 assuming the quality is there and they are not cheap plastic. I wanna be able to go on a road trip and not come back with busted lenses.

Better yet, just get the glass European spec lenses and skip all that OBX POS APC toy crap.

I don't know, but a guy I know, Rick, was doing a deal to import them while his brother was stationed in Germany. I have been trying to get in touch with him, but he's hard to get ahold of. That was while ago though and don't think he's doing it anymore. If I talk to him soon, I'll ask him. Hey, come to think of it, I have alot of family and friends in Germany, maybe I should look into that myself. Anyone interested?
