And if i could only find some headlamps to fit where the indicator/park lights go!
They would need to be approx 60-70mm dia.-Maybe two as full beam & two as dipped!

Don't be too rough on him Jim.....

W O T, Hella do some 50mm HID units, you can download their headlight catalog from their website (www.hella.co.nz) but from the looks of things you will probably have to fit washer kits and self leveling units as well. $$$$

Each to there own, I like Darth Vaders Storm Troopers too....

Yes I have a Bog standard front kit with a factory wide lip on the bottom+Mazdaspeed backside. Pretty low key really.

Don't post pics anymore as I have had some negative interest in the vehicle, or more so parts it there in contains! Who loves thieves? Just remember some of those flash parts under the bonnet of a worked mx5 also fit mazda Familias!
