Thinking of buying a set of the glass JDM projector headlights from ebay. Does anyone know if these are direct plug or will I have to do some electrical engineering to make them work?

 

These are the complete headlight unit, not a lightbulb replacement kit.

Use the search function to find a few posts on JDM headlights.

 

Be aware that the focus of the projector lights is backwards (for a RHD setup). You will not see the curbside well and you will blind oncoming traffic.

My buddy has a set in his 98 LGT. He got lucky on his, the previous owner of the headlights had already aimed them as correctly as one could. You will need to adjust them at the very least.

Search legacygt.com. There's a post on there how to wire them. Pretty easy, really.

They're not hard to adjust, just adjust them.

 

I really like mine, awesome output over stock. Truly amazing difference. And they look badass

 

They do look badass!

 

I noticed the JDM are one piece unit with turn signal rather than two piece, any fit problems with that?

 

Also, what years are interchangeable, 96-99?

 

thanks

They are one-piece. But they'll work fin in cars with 2-piece lights. My GT up there had the 2 part, and they fit just fine.

I had them until I wrecked my car....

 

like others said you will blind traffic unless you don't do anything about the cutoff..

 

For me I ground out the cut off and I made one out of a coke can for a LHD car.. never got flashed ever.

I didn't get flashed until I put HIDs in mine, it attracts all the ladies

I had HID's in mine with my custom LHD set-up.. It's way better then these crappy stock headlights I'm driving with now :-/

 

I just don't have the money to buy the lights at the moment.. but I did put yellow film over my foglights and I can see my foglights better then my headlights..

 

I miss the projector lights man you can see reflective street signs from a good distance.. It's like a night and day difference.

 

speaking of headlights I need to ask around here about what's not fitting right on my outback.

holding up great and I would of never thought I would get a lot of looks from it.. with the lights on every time I pass someone I always see them look down at the lights

 

I got to use them in some real heavy PA fog and they really did help cut the fog (I know stock lights don't get love)
