headlight modification

[mford]

Does anyone know of a kit for sale or a way to fix the headlights so you don't have to pull everything out under the wheel well to change the head light? Something where you can just plug in a new bulb like new cars have.

The H4 headlights that I just installed on my car still require you to gain access from the rear (inside the wheel well) to change bulbs/headlight assemblies. All you can do from the front is AIM the headlight with the adjustment screws.

Does anyone have a link to headlights where you can change the bulbs from the front, without going into the wheel well?

If so, please post the link. Thanks

should have said that just the bulb thing, forgot you still have to install them and remove them from the wheel well just the same

its late what do you expect :stupid:

RATS! I was hoping that there WAS a product like that out there. It's a PITA to pull the wheel and crawl in the well for what should be a simple & quick job.

Get some rest James, tomorrow is Monday :sick: :sick:

come on chaps, it isnt that hard to get under the car and change the bulbs from the rear. I have H4's and didnt find it that hard to do.. a little work, but what else on the 240Z is any easier???

[thefastestz]

I always just turn the wheel all the way without taking them off

and unscrew the headlights seeing with my sense of touch.

Why doesn't somebody make a mold of the plastic cover behind the headlights? It would protect the back of the headlights from water splashing and reduce corrosion of the wires & connector. Then we could all get the old ones out and attach the new ones with pins, so You can get them off easily. Also, a nice hole through the inner fender with a rubber wire protector would be nice. That way, the wires are protected from water splashing.

What's there originally, is OK, but they should have seen the problems with water straight away.

I know, I know, they aren't JDM, but they look so cool on the Z! (like this pic) BTW, who makes these lights or would I have to fabricate something?

That car pops out now and then

That mod would be all on you. You wont find it for sale anywhere I know of.

I have been thinking about a mod for mine aswell . I think I am going to work on putting that style light in. BUT keep the head light bucket and molding the light within the bucket. Then put clear headlight covers over that. I am thinkng along this line for looks. Less lights but thats the style I am thinking.

You couldn't just remove the light bowl from the back & screw it in from the front of the bucket, huh? It would probably need some trimming to fit, or replace it totally with something that does fit( a smaller unit with smaller lamp.)

That would be too simple

Maybe something to work into the JDM headlight covers, Hmmmm....
