PM Snoozin, he got some for his starlet (square tho) but i'm sure they had round ones

careful with ones off ebay, they blind on comming drivers, being made for LHD cars.

[matt dunn]

if all you want is some 5 3/4" or 7" rounds headlights I can help.

do you want sealed beam or semi sealed so you can fit bulbs?

[neo]

Arnt they just a semi-sealed headlight with a propper reflector?

Try be carparts in auckland (braxtons)

Ebay. You can get diamond cut with projector lense so you can run HID's.
The headlights are cheap but the shipping is always 4 or 5 times more than the actual item. Get in now before the dollar shits itself.

Careful with ones off ebay, they blind on comming drivers, being made for LHD cars. Make sure you can use them in RHD. Not legal etc.

Just to quote myself...

[HachirokuGTV]

Made for left hand drive cars?

[Lloyd]

Few imported vehicles coming in with the cutoff pattern on the low beams pointing to the wrong side of the vehicle. Not allowed them over here. If they're made for LHD vehicles then chances are they wont be allowed to be used over here


LHD ones look like this:

I have ones out of a townace in my ke.

Exactly the same and take H4 bulbs...

[NOLAW]

oh yeah well im after ones similar if not exactly like the ones in the pic shown, that KE20s from aus so id imagine those would be legal here (unsure where he got them though) wil most probly buy off aus ebay if nothing else comes up as id imagine they are made for RH drive

[Lloyd]

If you find some then let us know the price

[sergei]

What we do in russia with Jap import head lights we rotate them slightly so they would fit the right pattern (works only on round ones of course). Or you can modify the light bulb position so it would fit the pattern.

we had issues with a tundra that had been converted to RHD. for 5 years it passed WOFs with LHD lamps... then we failed it. omg did the customer kick up a fuss

[Alex B]

Chev ambulances pass their COF at the testing station with LHD lights. Must be some exceptions.

I bought some off a TM trader. They are not NZS stamped so are invalid for a WoF. Weak to boot, stone chip at 30km/h shattered the lense. However Semi sealed and put out a good amount of light. 7" round lense BTW.

had same problem with my cressida. got the diamond cut headlights off a guy on Trademe. one smashed with a small stone chip at around 40kmh. but the main problem was making them fit. they didnt line up with any of the sealed beam mounting points.

dont buy cheap ones!

can just buy headlights from an auto sparky..or even repco, used to get mine from there when i had my ke30, and got a set for my fj40 from there too

Oh how we forget the good times. Tabs in the wrong places, Took some amount of "fab" work to the headlight bucket to fit. Weren't that cheap at $100 per pair, Having to buy a second pair due to the fitting shattering was teeth grinding too.
