I've been taking close notice to the 9th genertation headlights and they are very similar as far as shape goes they just come out a lil more instead of being rounded.... will these headlights fit into the spot of my 7G headligths

IDK about that, so I'm just going to post this quote from when I had a headlight :idea:

<span style='font-size:18pt;line-height:100%'>Things to take into account:

Grill, hood, and fenders would need work. May even need to be bent to accent the look of the headlights, unless you wanna look like a Volvo w/ Civic projectors

Would the design of the housings cut into the radiator mount?
Would the housing get in the way of any of the parts in the engine bay?(resiviors, hoses, RADIATOR)

If you got the $$$ then go for it, but I'd be willing to be the bodywork needed to get them to fit would be in the THOUSANDS.</span>

Are you sure you were looking at 9G headlights? I could see maybe 8G headlights. (still allot of work) But 9G headlights :? you would be better off just buying a 9G.

i think it would take less work to move a mountain than get those headlights to fit into a 7G

baseballs and testicles more like

....funny.

I can't imagine 9g headlights on a 7g. The 9g is freakin HUGE....i see enough of them as rental cars around here in Orlando. I think 1 9g headlight would take up the whole height of the front end of a 7g.

19Galant97 · 10-07-2004, 07:32 PM

ok guys haha hehe wat I meant to say is 8G headlights

WOOOOPS I guess that made me look stupid

**StreetDreams** · 10-07-2004, 08:06 PM

In my opinion you would be better off getting some JDM's. It would be a lot of custom work to put the 8g headlights in there. Or just clear your 7g headlights. Just my thoughts.

well back to the question... no it won't, lol... but if you were gonna mold some headlights I would suggest the silvia S15's or 2g eclispe (97-99 stock housing) haven't seen either of those yet... or any for that matter

I dont know wat it is but there is somethin about the newer 8G headlights like on the 2003's they almost have like a smoke tint on some of them ... But do u think it would be easier for me to clear the corners myself or buy clear coners and second of all I cant find the clear corners for a 97 anywhere so.... I dunno any suggestions??
