Woah... Aftermarket headlights... has anyone seen these?

I saw this when looking through SVX pics last night... It is the first time I have seen these, and I think they look good. Does anyone know about these?

These are not SVX headlights. They are more like old Nissan Altima's

They look like a very high quality custom set. I'd be a monkeys uncle if they don't fit an SVX. Props to whoever did them even tho they are a little ricey.

You are a monkeys uncle because they don't fit the SVX

Do you know how I know? Because I was working on a set back home, wanted to integrate them into the SVX headlights. Then I moved to Qatar...

I have seen these before. If I am not mistaken, they are stock SVX lights with an angel-eye conversion. They look similar to Nissan Silvia lights though.

Yes, Angel Eyes DO fit in the stock housing. Yes, those ARE stock housings. And NO this isn't the first time its been done.

Re: Woah... Aftermarket headlights... has anyone seen these?

Well I think they look good. How hard is it to do something like this? These were with a bunch of SVX pics, so I thought maybe he did them custom or something. (The rest of the pics were a poor SVX which was riced to the max... ) But these do look high quality, and triple projectors would be nice. I dont think these are ricey, they come in higher end cars like BMW stock. Granted there are cheapy sets for civics and crap that do look horrible, but these arent that way. Somone should market something like this...

Mike, I looked up that car on Ebay that you posted... These are the exact lights out of that car

I found the exact pics... So depressing, lol. I was getting my hopes up for maybe no more yellow headlights

Stock Nissan? What about them doesn't fit Silver Spear? I ask because some nissan parts are a direct fit for the SVX.

Not these. Those ones differ in their height and their outer edges...

I was working on installing their cores, but that is really a very difficult job to do.. well you need to keep the beams direction correct. The angel eyes are easy then...

If it were not for the width and angle of the edges (which could just be the way they were photographed) I would assume mid to late 90s nissan as well.
If they are SVX, then there have been other front end lighting mods as well... special attention to were the fog light would be on the svx.

Just open up your stock headlights and install a couple of this universal angel eye projectors... as easy as it can gets



Not bad if you combine them with clear headlight covers... I think I found a nice weekend project!!!

How are you supposed to aim those? Are they for both high beam and fogs? I assume you would leave the low beams, as those are already projectors.

Is it just me, or do those ones look small?

You can always remove the glowing part of these projectors and custom fit them inside the SVX headlights. If it was I to buy them, I would ask the seller to take the diameter of those rings first. Try also to find those as standalone without buying the projectors, I think they exist (too lazy to look them up myself).
