I'm really not sure if that's possible. I don't think there is a spot for the LED stip in the US stock Headlamp bodies.



+1. If you do get a set from UK or Japan, you have to re-aim your lights. Pull up 10ft from a garage door and turn the lights on. The left light needs to be a bit lower than the right. Not sure on the angles. Mark the door somehow and match the new stuff with the stockers.

Find flat area with a light colored wall.
Measure from the wall 25ft out. Mark the spot with tape about 4-5ft strip. Re-measure the ends of the tape to the wall so you know your perfectly parrallel. Drive your car and park along the tape and try to make it evenly so your headlights are parralel with the tape. From there you measure the height from the ground to the center of your HID projectors. Take this measurement and go to the wall. Place a peice of tape corresponding to the height of your headlight vertical measurement from the ground and mark it on the wall. Now take your measuring tape and take 2 inches below that line you just marked on the wall and do another 5ft strip horizontally.. This should be your cutt off.

If anything you have to raise your cutt off to meet this line - thats if you dropped the height of your vehicle.

Never aim above the horizontal strip you just placed on the wall. That just means your aiming upwards.. potentially blinding everyone in front of you. And for the people that react to shinning HID's in thier face will either flash you back , flip a Bitch and chase you or plain out not see you and possible head on collision.

The U.S. vertical aiming standard is 2.1" of drop at 25ft, or 8.4" per 100ft. This actually mean that a taller vehicle (truck) with high mounted headlamps will have alot more reach than a compact car. ECE aiming standards have slightly less drop.

ive taken apart headlights before, ill see if i have some pictures when i get home to show you the process, ill see if i can get a set of extra cr-z lights so i can do a tutorial im not taking my car apart yet before i can test it on spare headlights, i learned the hard way once never doing it again.

Talking about baking the lights, to get them apart?

Baking sounds so girly! but yes

i did my Si headlights before... you can bake them or use a heat gun to soften the glue around the edges...

I have used a wallpaper remover heat gun <-- works the best. But baking the lights heats up everything evenly.

Dude... I bake a lot! I make bread that is so yummy... crispy thin crust on the outside, and fluffy inside... hot with some butter... MMMMM!

Aint nothing girly about baking! P:

Tastes a lot better than a headlight!!! :rotfl:
