I have an s13 with funked up headlights.  the right one is totally off aim...it aims further to the left then the left one does!  they overlap after a distance.  Turns out the plastic housing is totally ruined and i have to pay 100 dollars plus for a new *entire* headlight since nissan wont let me just buy the housing.  I got to thinking and if I wanted to put the hella h4s in with the new flip ups for both sides it would run me about 300 bucks...why isn't there a supply of sleek headlights for s13s?  I'm almost tempted to do an s14 front end conversion because that looks pretty cool...I know there have been posts on the sleek headlights before but it really bugs me.  I contacted veilside and they said to ask these other guys who said to ask ab flug, but ab flugs site is in japanese...they seem to be the only ones who actually produce the conversion...just a rant...respond if you feel the need to rage about something

I have the clearer halogen conversion, and it looks pretty dope. I still want the non pop-up version and when i contacted Veilside, they said that they don't manufacture it any longer. Anyone know a company that does?<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

This might sound kinda dumb, but I wanna get a little switch in the car that I can hit to make only the left light go down for a second, so I can wink at people <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

dude...my s13 does a winking thing anyways. &nbsp;I live in houston so when its really hot the right headlight just goes up and down and up and down until I manually press it down. &nbsp;This is only when I close them at night though. &nbsp;and there is a place that sells the sleek headlights I found out...its a company called ab-flug and there website is at www.ab-flug.co.jp &nbsp;if you dont speak japanese there is a translated site at http://www.ab-flug.hn.org/Products/default.htm
if you want them the kit costs about 1500 dollars though...a little steep in my opinion
there are also the integra style lights you can get from unstable hybrids...I dont like them much
I was thinking about the strawberry face s14 front end conversion but it would make my car look too different for me...I dont like those little weenie headlights
I was actually thinking of just getting mine replaced from nissan and buying one of the angle controllers from japan so I could make them at any angle I wanted. &nbsp;with one of those you really could make them wink(really blink but..)
I dunno though
