s13 CA. Help with Silvia Projector wiring

Hi fellow members of Zilvia. Who would be able to help me to tell me what exactly I'm missing and how I can source it. Got ahold of a not so good front end and I'm trying to let its glory days relive. Thanks.

Dude... you're not going to get any help with a post like this. There are numerous writeups on the web about the pigtail wiring and front end conversions. Do a little bit of digging and I'm sure you should be able to figure it all out. If you run into a bit of a roadblock with it, let us know what you've done, and what's giving you the trouble. Until then, best of luck, and you could use the "SMALL QUESTIONS THREAD" for stuff like this in the future.

The back of the low beam projector is snapped off on the headlight closest to you in the photo. Have fun trying to "wire" that!

Get a new set of lights and make your life easier. You will need to modify them or retrofit them with better LHD projectors so the low beam is suitable for US roads as well.

yea understand your dillema. they look perfectly fine except missing a couple of parts... i would just try to buy some broken ons that you can use to salvage parts from. i'm not really familiar with s13 head lights but from other posts it looks like they're missing stuff...

It would be nice if some after market company made s13 head lights, they make them for the kouki 14 but not s13 silvia.

Yeah man it would be nice. That's just my problem that I've actually been searching g for like 2 months but since I'm missing a lot and I haven't found anyone to part out headlights. Thanks for everyone's input.
