Just a headlight teaser. Wish me luck!

Just thought i would share a little on my project with retrofitting some headlights. I am getting evermore sure that they will work out with slight over hang/body modification, but we will see hehe

Enjoy!







Obviously there is some fitting required!

interesting
id be temped to cut the blinker bits off and use the stock blinkers just for ease of fitting and sand the inside of the blinkers to make them crystal clear aswell if it was possible to do so

Re: Just a headlight teaser. Wish me luck!

To show you all that this is a more 'minor' modification than it looks in the previous pictures, I will add these:


hopefully there will be a small hood overhang across the top of the lights once all fit in






just before the girl got pulled in for a total overhaul



and her she sits currently minus the engine, transmission, rear differential and any other removable frame component you can think of (notice: matching floor)

now to find the time to wrap her all in-time for auto-x this September!

Re: Just a headlight teaser. Wish me luck!

This looks interesting, but I would wonder how it might work to cut up the accord housings, and mount them inside SVX lens housings, with the stock projector and reflector assemblies removed.

Perhaps at the same time with OEM-grade HID projector units, and the high beam reflector set to receive HIR bulbs, as well.

Interesting project. I'll keep up with the progress.
