headlight replacement

Post by nissan sss »

HI ok so I want to change out my stock head lights with some neat smoke onces.

what do you guys think pros and cons of the following.

projector headlight with cristal finish and angel eye.

or the normal smoke cristal with normal reflector.

im just wondering does the projector thing work nice, and if the angel eye is not a bit too much.

input welcome

Works lovely. Got the clear crystal ones in with the eyeball and osram cool blue bulbs. Much more clear and brighter than stock. My 2 cent. Will post a pick later

Absolutely no point in tinting S13 headlights, dont see them during the day because you would have them closed, and during the night itl just make your lights dim and you would not see its tinted by looking at it with lights on anyways, i think tinting your lights is only for it to look good during the day when you dont need to actually use them. Nice projector headlights tho. wouldnt mind a pair of those

Hey I'm looking for headlights now, were those projector headlights for the nissan 1400? I hear you can just pop them into sx, I saw a few nice 1400 headlights on autostyle for cheap but I don't want anything with angel eyes, just looking for plain crystal projector.
