where did you find the EUR glass headlights?

Check the 200sx forums. And aussie nissan forums. There is a supplier in Germany I spoke to as well about a group buy, but it was still gonna be too expensive.
Maybe by the time My S14 rolls into my driveway, you guys may have something. I’ll keep my eyes peeled for any other possible suppliers.
hopefully wit won’t be $800CND like last time.
Soooo just curious… is there a group buy on this item?? if so… I’m interested…
the refractors on the euro spec lights will be pointing to the left, instead of the right (blinding on coming traffic)!
and wouldn’t your headlights be prone to moisture leakage if you open the asembly? not the greatest for winter driving, i would imagine (might also short something out).
that price is a little bloated for plastic covers, but they do look sweet!!
No they won’t, all headlights, weather euro or USD point forward infront of the car(to the centre). How do u think JDM cars are legal for canadian streets? The lens doesnt change the angle of the lights, if you lights are pointing to the right, you might wanna gett hat fixed.
if you dont bake them well enough, they wont seal, but if you do it properly, they will look sweet, and won’t leak. Most of the honda guys do their JDM black-housing this way.

I hate doube quoting but there are some corrections that need to be made.
First part, Paul is right, USDM headlights are angled slightly to the right so that they do not blind oncoming traffic. JDM/EURO lights are angled in the opposite direction, that is how they are designed. I am not sure about the laws on this, and I know that some headlight angles are adjustable, but stock, they are slightly angled.
2nd Part is pretty accurate, the headlight housings are resealed in the oven to make the glue/adhesive get sticky again, thus resealing the light, it should be waterproof if done correctly.
tou che’
i never knew that, wonder if cops can pull you over for it.
You would have to check the hta.
pretty unlikely that the cops would pull u over, unless u blind them, and its possible to u-E.
if u look closely at the headlight covers on zenki s14 headlight assemblies, the ugly lines in the plastic are part of the refractors, they disperse the light away from opposing traffic. the little lenses/ plastic inside the assemnly direct the light to the right slightly, away from opposing traffic, and on the road.
i supppose if anything is done right, it will be tight.
there is always that chance though that thing may not work out well.
sorry, for that price, i would expect full headlight assemblies, but they do look nicer than OEM no doubt. and u really can’t swap a front end for cheaper, so if its your cup of tea, go for it! i’d have to see it in person to give an honest opinion. looks like a nice upgrade though, but a kouki front end is still nicer, not to mention a strawberry face (but the price difference is 5X higher).
Didn’t they ever sell S14s in, say, Germany or something? i.e. a Euro market that’s LHD.
Yep. Glass too so it shouldn’t yellow.
