I have a pair of JDM headlights that I've decided to let go for now. I will eventually be doing a complete restoration of my beloved Z, but that time is a long ways off, and I have no use for these lying around the house. I'll just end up breaking them or losing them somehow. These are the NON XENON style (pre `99). Comes with all the bulbs already installed, and both units are in very good shape. I chose these because of the flat glass surface on the jdm style, versus the aiming "nipples" on the US spec headlights. These headlights will require minor rewiring to install. If I understand correctly, the plugs are different between the US and the JDM headlights. This really is a minor issue and shouldn't take too much effort, even for people who arn't comfortable splicing wires. Another issue is the beam cutoff. The JDM version is made to bias the light towards the left side of the road to help light up road signs (remember, they drive on the wrong side of the road there). While the US spec lights up the right side respectively. From what I've read, this really isn't a big problem as far as blinding other drivers (our cars sit so low it doesn't affect most people, and even then we're not talking about the difference between highbeams and lowbeams) and many people run the Xenon JDM headlights without modifying to correct the issue. If you really want to correct it, you will have to either swap out the cutoffs from a US spec set, or modify/grind down the JDM cutoffs to get the correct bias. Price is $200 + shipping I will ship anywhere in the US, but shipping will vary. Please contact me with your zipcode for a definate shipping price (I can ship it cheaper through UPS than you're average joe). The headlights will be packaged securely with plenty of padding/insulation. The items will be insured for $100 by default through UPS, more insurance is avaliable if you wish. Note: I will NOT split the set, so please don't ask. Price is firm, I'm simply looking to get back what I paid for them. I'm in no hurry to sell, as I'm half tempted to just keep them and dust them off to place on a my shelf until needed. The price is fair, as these usually go for $150 each used through venders/online retailers. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Please EMAIL me, as I check that much more often than the forums. Thank you.
