s13 flip up light not working

[240Degrees]

I did the ghetto sleepy eye modification to my car. I spliced into the green wire connected to the button that flips the headlights open, connected it to a rocker switch, and everything. I turn on my lights and only the passenger side headlight is working. Both high beams work, but when I'm driving around, only the passenger low beam is working. I didn't drive my car for 3 days before i modified it, so it might have gone out before.

I think I might have blown a fuse because I didn't disconnect the battery when I did this. The headlight bulb might be out, so it might need replacing.

The 2nd, not so important, problem is my headlights wont stop evenly when i hit the switch while it's closing. The driver's side headlight is higher than the other. Am I just stuck with this?

STOP WITH THE GOD DAMN SMILEYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad to have that out of my system.

Sounds like you just burned out a bulb, a fuse would effect more than your driver side lowbeam. Replace the lamp, if it's still out, you need to check your wiring.

There's nothing wrong with reggelar ole popups. I personally find the silvia front end a little bland :P

ok it works now! :) Thanks misnomer. The adjustment screws are all rusty tho, so they aren't pointed perfectly. Now that I have the light working, does anyone know how to make the headlights go down evenly?

i think with the ghetto light mod, it's just a matter of luck. sometimes mine are even, sometimes they aren't.


maybe this new 'drugged' look will overtake the 'sleepy' look as being the most mad tyte. :)

mine are uneven all the time :( Maybe if I spray wd40 where those rod thingies are, it will be more even? Is it safe to do so?
