kouki euro headlight - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

zbarsuglia · 01-12-2015, 12:48 PM

So I've called all the Nissan shops that carry these headlights and all have said that the right side has been on back order for months. I ordered both over a year and a half ago and only got the left side (driver side)

Does anyone know of another place that I can buy them?
I mean, if anyone had a brand new jdm kouki headlight for us passenger side I'll buy it seein that thethey are aesthetically the same

spooled240 · 01-12-2015, 01:16 PM

when you say Euro, are these headlights UK(RHD) or German(LHD)?

silviaks2nr · 01-12-2015, 02:06 PM

Backordered probably means it does not exist in the warehouse. They don't make these parts anymore.

***FaLKoN240*** · 01-12-2015, 02:48 PM

I assume these are supposed to look like JDM kouki but with the LHD beam pattern?

97nismo · 01-12-2015, 03:32 PM

Thought that uk and jdm were the same someone confirmed this not too long ago fizzle maybe had a red kouki????

zbarsuglia · 01-12-2015, 07:53 PM

German. Or whatever is lhd. Not trying to blind people. But if you guys know where let me know. Thanks. Nissan still says that they make them not jdm ones

dionkouki · 01-12-2015, 08:17 PM

I don't know for sure they have it, but nissanparts.cc is where I usually go for oem parts.

http://www.nissanparts.cc/partlocato...catalogid=9759

That's the usdm right. Give them a call and see. I could be wrong but think UK is LHD and German is RHD. Don't know where the "euro" headlights are sourced. Either way, probably not going to blind people. Stock light output of these are horrible. If you have the funds and aren't afraid to take them apart the best option is a HID retrofit, then you're swapping the projectors anyway so LHD/RHD won't matter.

Good luck.

I picked up my brand new set from Nissan race shop @ Fontana Nissan . I have the pigtail and switch to make the headlight adjustment work pm me if you find the side you need and want the pigtail

ruibenma · 01-13-2015, 12:00 AM

that right,Nissan still says that they make them not jdm ones,thanks

moebiius · 01-13-2015, 03:34 AM

i think he meant Uk RHD headlights that look aesthetically like the JDM ones with the bigger projectors but work like the USDM ones....

Germany is LHD. Look at the 200sx Z edition that was only available in Germany. It's LHD and has the dual housing headlights like the JDM/UK 200sx's.

OP: I'm curious to know where you purchased your German headlights from. This was my main gripe with the JDM headlights being that the cutoff is for RHD. On an unrelated note, there is a way to modify the projector shield to change the cutoff, but at that point you may as well just retrofit some better projectors. I just like that plug n play shit

dionkouki · 01-13-2015, 11:08 AM

You're right. I was thinking UK drive on the left and Germany drives on the right which flips the LHD and rhd. Have you read a post to change the cutoff on the stock projectors? You can on hid projectors but iirc the stock ones had the cutoff molded into the casing. I'll see if i can find mine when I get home.

Boo plug n play hid conversion.

spooled240 · 01-13-2015, 11:36 AM

Not specifically changing the cutoff for kouki headlights, just projector headlights in general. I know someone who modified the cutoff on s15 headlights, but I'm not sure if those are built like the kouki's. Damn, if the shield is molded into the casing then I suppose it would be easier to swap out the entire projector, effectively killing 2 birds with one stone.

silviaks2nr · 01-13-2015, 01:43 PM

It's possible to do and I can and have done it. But it makes a lot more sense to just do do an hid projector retrofit if you're going to open the lights up anyways. That's half of the work doing a retrofit on these lights- it's very straight forward.

zbarsuglia,
Were you able to find anyone stocking the euro kouki s14 headlights? I'm looking for a set with the lhd beam pattern myself.

Unfortunately no

silviaks2nr · 07-08-2015, 01:58 PM

Just get jdm lights and retrofit Lhd hid projectors.

frizzle · 07-08-2015, 03:38 PM

I have a JDM light waiting for you. @bn_forever

razmus · 07-08-2015, 04:54 PM

Germany/Spain/France/etc are all LHD. Basically all of Europe except for Ireland and UK. Ive seen a few set of these pop up locally, just never knew there enough interest like Zenki glass lights. If anyone else is looking for a set I could help out.

Shouldn't be too hard to find some with the part numbers.

killerhair · 07-08-2015, 05:39 PM

I know this is a bit late but these are from Japan and are glass. Not sure if these match what you are looking for because now I see the Euro's are a bit different. I just pulled them from my s14 and will be selling them soon.

spooled240 · 07-08-2015, 06:21 PM

I recently PM'd a member in Germany inquiring about the availability of kouki headlights in his area and he said they are pretty rare. Supposedly kouki s14's are very rare so part-outs are virtually nonexistent.

That's interesting to hear. According to the UK guys, the Zenkis are uncommon while the Koukis a dime a dozen.

I tried that store but when you add these to your cart, there is a note below stating "Warning! This item is temporary unavailable. Please remove it from your cart"
