I would only do this if you redid the lights inside to work with the sleepy eyes. Lets say you put two projectors or something simular inside so it would work as a functional headlight once its nightime and you would be able to keep the sleepy look all night long. Much like I do <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

well, if you just want to do the sleepy look with the lights you have, read this: http://240sx.org/faq/articles/headlights_2-3_up.htm
i used the second method. but after doing this several times, and taking the time to manually adjust them to the same height each, it gets old. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

I personlly like the look with the lights down. Popups do go way high, look kinda awkward. Mebbe I'll find some engineering genious to hammer out a fix for meh :-)

Hmm, what about a combination of mark's idea and the stock look... throw some projector headlights in there, but figure out a way to let the lights go down all the way too. Probably wouldn't be too hard, and it would look cool when you were driving around at night.

All you have to do is disconnect the head light motor harness that is right below each of the light motors and then turn them up the manual way.

Mark, I love that idea. I've been playing around with my headlights, trying to figure out what to do (I prefer this to painting my nails) and I haven't come up with a VERY good solution yet. I came up with something, but I don't wanna embarass myself just yet. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Come on tell us your idea for your headlights. Wait I know what your idea is, you want to put one big light in the middle of your hood so u can nickname your car &quot;cyclops&quot; then get a windshield banner that say's &quot;beware of the cyclops&quot; but it is spelled backwards so people can read it in there mirrors! Man I should be a mind reader. &nbsp;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.angelfire.com/ma/noopie/images/smileys/FIREdevil.gif&quot;&gt;

NOOO YOU DEVIL, YOU!!!
I wanted to put a big barbie-doll and have her hold the light. WHAT DID YOU THINK, I'M A GIRL!!!

Actually, I wanted to figure out a way to only have the cover come up 2/3ds of the way, remove the housing and the headlight, attach three little projection lights and adhere them to the top of the pop-up part and voila! But, I gotta take a look at the wiring diagrams and find lights that will fit the way I want them to.

How's that for a girl? <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
