So I've done an interior LED swap for the gauges and the lights for the door as well as the two lights on the roof. Im thinking of changing the headlights. Does anyone know some good ones. I'm not trying to make my max look too "ricer-ish" - just good. So far I've looked some up on ebay and this what I found:

what do you guys think about these?
does anyone have any specific headlights that look really good?

I'll post a pix of my max soon.

besides these, the only aftermarket HL options we have i believe are the AE ones, they are 2 piece but some of the chrome inside is black.

what most people do is buy these one pieces and retrofit projectors into them. its a cool deal though, coming with the matching bumper lights.

perfect if you are planing an HID retrofit other than that just a waist of money and time

zubi23

What do you mean by HID retrofit? So buy these and then put HIDs in them? Or just get HID headlights?

read what i posted. his was too generic if you dont already know what to do. he means retrofit projectors to project the hids, because the output from these lights alone is terrible.

zubi23

Interesting. So how would I retrofit these to HID projectors?

I have the same set. They came with the car but none the less I think they look decent. Definitely not ricey. Only thing i dont like is it changes the headlight bulbs to 9005/9006. Id prefer just to have the stock 9004 bulbs. It sucks replacing all four bulbs as compared to just the two. Something to think about.

You will also want to change all sidemarker/blinker bulbs to an amber bulb or else youll be flashing white instead of amber like its supposed to be. I couldnt stand white blinkers.

Why?? This is your opinion, he doesnt have to do this (unless its the law in his state that blinkers must be amber).

i love how they all state that they will fit 95 to 99's. i know damn well that my 95 wont take 99 headlights. i did a retro 4 years ago and i had to use 99 style lights and they work but they are'nt a perfect fit nor do they sit straight. dammit

thats what im talking about with the fitment, plus, its not crooked, there's a shadow on the back of that corner. that one side is f'ed up cause a clip is broken on the light to hold it straight. dammit!!

my shoes are too tight. my socks hurt. the suns in my eyes. the moons too bright.

HA i knew that ****... was going around everywhere looking to see how well 97-99 fit since i wanted r34's w/ hid or retro + hid but now i see the fitment...

i wouldn't mind a bit of misfitting but i got glass headlights (no yellowing ty very much ) that are perfectly fine and the weather stripping is still in great shape so it looks like i'm gonna keep em and stick 5.4 or 6k hid's and 2.5k hid for fogs

thank you tigersharkdude for posting this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think by law your blinkers need to be amber. He was worried about the headlights looking "ricey". Imo it looks pretty ricey to have white blinkers. Hence my suggestion.

Also its Federal law that the blinkers have to be amber in the front or red/amber for the rear. Federal law > State law. You can google this if you don't believe me. However I cant see a cop pulling you over just for this but why give them a reason?
