Well... the idea is to polish out the diffraction in the stock S14 lense and retrofit 2002+ BMW 5-series HID auto-leveling projectors in....

The thing is... clearcorners.com already has a projector conversion for the S13.

pick up some of those projector lights and rip open the headlight housing and just glue them in some how. i thought about it...but how would you clear out the stock headlight lens?

You know you can bolt on the R32 skyline Type M head lights to a Zenki (before) S14 I have done it and it fits you just have to do a little work to the level of the beam. The R32 Type M are Projectors. Not like the Kouki (after) Projectors

Did you replace the S14 parking lights w/ the R32 signal lights or did they match up as well (you are talking about the US 95-96 240sx, right)?

Honestly, I think someone in FL has already done this (although I think it was 3-series... I recall the rim of the projector had writing on it... ??"Xenon"??). They posted about it on FA.
It DID look pretty good... if you are into that whole vision for $1000 thing.

I remember someone doing that, He replace his projectors from his '98 and replace them with 3-Series Xenon's.
I believe his name is Mike.

I could spend over 2 grand at clearcorners.com. they got some sweet stuff. Ace, looks nice. It would definatley set your car apart.
I wonder is clearconers would be willing to trade an S13 headlight and tail conversion for a kidney...... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'>

This is an idea that seems very possible. You never know someone might actually do something like this in the future. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sly.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':sly:'>
I might give it a try, when I have money to dispense and time on my hands. I was also considering a taillight conversion for the S-14, but that just an idea I have.

That conversion didn't include the Angel Eyes and auto-leveling IIRC. Wasn't it just to get the proper projector for HID lighting??

It started out as an idea to get HID lighting on a non-HID car, but got carried away. It still serves some purpose though (daytime driving lights and a true HID conversion).

Hey i was just wondering... if anyone has the 95-96 Glass headlights?? the Euro ones??? and if so, where can i find out more info on them?<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'> or where i can buy them THanks

This has been done to a couple of Volkswagens too -- most notably the Mk IV Golf (headlight housings work perfectly for the angel eye conversion) but it has also been done on a Mk. III Golf.
If anyone's visited any BMW 5-series forums, you'll realize how much hatred and malice there is directed towards the angel-eye converters. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>
I would personally not do the "angel eye" conversion, but I do like the looks of clearcorner.com's projector 'conversion'.
