But these lights stick up less than the standard lights :?


Yeah, but the lights have all these exposed bits and jutting edges....reminds me of Johnny 5 from that movie Short Circuit :)

Surely there's gotta be a more sexah low-pro kit... :?

Babs, I've noticed some of these Jap-modded Roadsters have flush-mounted lights that seem to look quite ok with the car. Do you know where I can find some info on them?

Dunno...I know Gurglr had some on his old NA6, but he didn't know where they came from. I've always suspected that it was some kind of Japanese kit that modified NSX headlights to fit the MX5, since the lens looked similar...

there was a guy in the US working on a really nice looking flush mount kit.
i know he finished one set for his car & it looked really good. don't know if he ever got it to production stage though.

Yeah, but the stock ones have the black plastic surround....those dual ones leave the corners of the barn doors all jutting out...it just looks like it doesn't so much as cheat the wind as assault it :D
