95 to 97-98 head lights conversion GAP

[270R]

I keep hearing about a gap in between the hood and the head lights.
What is this gap and how do I fix It. What Do I need to Fix. :bite:



I just 15 min ago ordered left and right head lamp assy, and the left and right signal lamp assy. the hood is already installed and looking good lol...

PLz Help.. :aw: :rl:

BTW(for those thick people): Im doing a conversion 95 to 97 (zenki to kouki)

WTF are youtalking about? try using actual sentences

Read the damn title!!!!!! :loco:




OK time to take deep breaths

You use the hood to line up the headlights and set the headlights in to the hood. If there is not enough gap use shims on the hood to raise it slightly. I did the conversion and it turned out fine.

YOu read what you what you wrote it makes no damn sense. let me dumb myself down and try and decipher what you want. your doing a kouki conversion correct? your worried about a hood gap? did you get a complete conversion or are you a tool and just ordered the lights expecting to slap them on your zenki?

[max power]

listen up you dolts! :) That 'gap' could possibly be the result of a missing rubber seal placed alongside the outer edge of the hood. So, check to make sure you have it in place.

I read in this forum somewere a guy had a 2 in gap from his head lights to the hood, and im thinking i may have the same problem. I cant find the thread so I thought I should ask the experts. as for the rubber seal I got that already, but not the lights. so it may have been either the headlights to hood or the bumper cover to head lights. I forget which one.

the gap is cause youd be missing the hood seal. its # 19 on that diagram. just buy that and clip it onto the hood. it makes a nice seal between it and the headlights so air doesnt come gushing in. when i got a carbon hood for my car, i didn't have that seal..cause there were no holes for it. guess what? my hood flew off. :doh: :faint:

cause a tool like you would probably miss me standing in the road. I couldnt answer the question like candy did cause I dont have the energy to suffer fools such as yourself AND decipher ID 10 T speak too.

I did the conversion and I did not have any gap what so ever. All I know is that if your missing the hood seal a gap is noticable. Did you read my write-up yet?
