i just put on the body kits for my car, and i don't kow what kind of corner lighting to put in the empty place. it's a square shape in the front bumper and my stock 93 hatch coner light won't fit there. i have a picture of it, can some one tell me what kind of coner lights are those . if it possible where to buy it thanks. and last, if i get the new coner lights do i have to do any custome wires cutting?
i'm trying to put picture but is not going up so here is the link i saw the light there too but don't know what kind of light is that.

All kouki 180sx had those, not just the Type X.

True because there are different types but the most common to American eyes and ears is the Type X.
So I'll clarify, Kouki 180SX or Type X Bumper Lights
Either way this is what you are looking for

You need the 89-90 240SX lights.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Those look like the 89-90 Bumper lights.
And just to make sure you are talking about the front lights and not the side marker lights?

I thought you were talking about the type-x position lights, but no. I think you are looking for zenki turn signals. Kazama has a very clean set they sell on more-japan.com and their turn signal lens are clear with amber bulbs.
As for the wiring. Not sure but you may need to switch to a connector assembly. I think its part number B4342-7990. I bought mine from West Covina Nissan. The wiring might be similar to mine in that your OEM harness has three wires and this connector assembly only has two so these zenki lens might only operate as turn signals and not remain on like your corner side markers.
Search using "type-x position lights install" or something similar to find additional install help.

Also, Origin has turn or winker lights/lens. They might cost more. Same deal with the wiring though. Check enjukuracing.com
All wiring for these lights are basic . You just need electrical tape, the necessary connectors for splicing, and the right harness or assembly connectors....also patience..take your time on it and get it done right the first time.
Alright then...best to you and I hope you find what you are looking for.:)

Mynismo.com has the wiring connectors. They advertise them as sidemarker connectors, but they are for the front position/turn signal lights. Check your OEM wiring harness to see if there are three wires or two.
This weekend I'll be connecting my positioning lights with those same above mentioned harness to my type-x bumper along with a battery relocation kit. So if you need help PM me if I can help out in anyway.
Peace!

you're not still having an issue are you?
the bumper lights directly below the headlights on that aftermarket bumper is the 89-90 240sx lights. You can get ebay ones, oem ones (from ebay, junk yard, part out, whatever).
And yes, the plug itself is the same 89-94.
What you really should have done, btw, is ask the person/shop you bought it from. :newbie:

Then why not give AIT a call and ask them, if they made the bumper, I'm sure they know which light you will need....?

Sorry bro, but you're referring to another person I assume someone has the same member name as I do on another forum. Yeah, I wish I had an EVO,
Regardless, PM me if I can be of any help. Gonna get started in a few minutes.
Enjoy your weekend!!

I'm actually pretty curious now.
Can you take an actual picture of your front bumper showing the "corner light" spot. And if you can, how the 89-90 light lines up on there.
A lot of members have run AIT stuff on this forum & no one's ever had a problem like yours. Are you sure you didn't install the light upside down or something? ;)
If I'm 100% wrong, by all means, please show me w/ a picture.
