Lazy Eye

anyone know how to lazy eye an S13. the 180sx way?!?!?

here ya go, this is in the FAQ section under the thread for Free/Cheap Mods:Sleepy Eyes (s13)

1. Make sure headlamps are off and in the "closed" position.
2. Get down on your back and look up through the large opening in the lower front bumper.
3. Look directly under the left and right headlamps and find their electronic plugs.
4. Now while you are down there, you can reach through the large opening and unplug the electronic plugs left and right. You must unplug these in order to adjust the headlamp motors manually.
5. Now get off the ground and pop your hood. You should see a headlamp motor next to each of the headlamps. Looks like a single prong.
6. Pull the cap off each headlamp motor. Now you may manually adjust the headlamp angle at any variable by turning the knob. Make sure that both headlamp motors are evenly adjusted.
7. Now turn your headlamps in the "on" position. Notice the motors dont move and the headlamps simply light up. Viola, instant "sleepy look."
**Now in order to get the headlamps in its original position you have to manually adjust the headlamps in the "closed" position via the motor. Then plug the wiring back together.


And btw, it is usually called Sleepy Eye. Lazy eye is if you have a medical problem with you eyes, lol.
Or you can buy a Pivot Headlamp controller, it's a waste of $100 IMHO. I just did it the cheap way above.

theres an easier way to do it, but it might not be very straight as one eye might be lower than the other.

Enjoy. DIY. Just be sure you double check your wires. Not 100% sure if the USDM wiring is the same color codes.

how can i check the wires?

[RedStage]

If the wires are the same, you should be good to go.

A buddy of mine did his first. He checked them with a volt meter.
I'll have to get ahold of him and ask him what clued him into which wire to cut.

Give me a day or so.

The pivot headlight control adjusts the height when the headlights going down so I don't think this is what you're looking for.
