I want to convert my 9 hid headlights to jdm 8 mr headlights like the picture below.



Where can i find the amber plastic for the lower turn signal and the white plastic for the top?

 

lol .....buying the headlight

 

damn i love ww

 

Its not going to happen. There is no further IPB for the headlights which means there is not a repairable part internal to the light. Its a consumable and will be removed and replaced as a single unit.

Sum it up. Your best bet is to hit upgarage or yahoo japan for some headlights.

 

Let me know if you find a set of jdm's, ive been wanting a set of black/dark headlights

 

lmfaowrofl

 

You are not going to be able to buy the amber piece. I have seen people use a translucent amber/orange paint found at craft stores and they turned out really nice.

 

i bought mine from driveline and i paid $600 for them 3 years ago... it's crazy how expensive they are now.

 

ya, prices just keep on going up.

 

Quick search found some JDM Evo 7/8

And using Yahoo Japan you can find these all day long.

Now your next question. I cant help you with you will have to find the middle man. But it can be done and is done all over the US everyday.

 

^yikes, is that $800+ USD just for the units? Then you'd have to figure the middle man + shipping! I think Russell at Mitsubishiparts.net has gotten them cheaper, but don't quote me on that! It doesn't appear as though they have headlights in atm, but their matching JDM tails are under $500 for the set.

 

your best bet would be to look for a set fs. You also can try to paint the bottom portion amber but id doesnt look good as the jdm heads

 

i was thinking about painting the bottom piece with the tamiya ts-73 orange but wasn't sure how to make the top piece look white like the jdm ones.
