R33 Series 2 Headlights Fit Into S1.5?

[nemesis101]

When i bought my 1.5 gts-t, the right hand side headlights are fogged up, there is condensation in there....

if i were to get r33 s2 headlights......is there a perfect fit to my s1.5??, is the dimensions different?

if not

How do i clean the headlight covers and what is a strong glue to seal the headlights back up??

Auto Barn sells some products you can use, Go and ask them. Depending on how bad its fogged you can get 2 different items. One is a spray that you spray on the light cover (its like a plastic polish) and u rub it clean just repeat and it works well. Second is a kit comprising of some wet and dry and a liquid polish. You use the wet and dry from roughest to smoothest and give it a really really good going over untill its completely smooth. Then use the liquid polish on it with a rag.,

I brought both of the items and used them together made my lights good as new.

Hi Skyrin3

Thanks for the info, i just checked my headlights position, just trying to find out how hard it is to get them out....it seems that there are a few screws in awkward positions.....was it hard for you to remove the headlights??.....and did you seal the covers allright at the end??

The S2 headlights will not fit without a bonnet change at least...

You can clean them, there are plenty of threads on it, do a search... same with getting them out

DRD-OOF, if i were to get the headlights from a s2 and a bonnet from a s2 R33, would this fit in my S1.5??

because i have to admit that the headlights from a s2 R33, looks 10x better.....

You will need sr2 bonnet,frount bar and grill

[DRD-00F]

Yep, I figured the needing of a bonnet would shut you up...

It's pretty much a whole front end conversion, with shit not sitting perfectly etc...

PS: I reckon S2s look like shit... just my 2c... though the headlights are of a better build quality and FAR easier to keep clean

[cruzin33]

It will look a lot better and things will line up perfect but can get pricey when you add up parts and paint and its hard to find a set of sr2 lights iv been looking for 4weeks now

If you just change the head lights and bonnet the front bar will sit under the head lights and will not line up properly.

To make it fit and look decent you need:

Head lights, (Expect to pay from a wrecker if your lucky enough to find them $300-500)

Bonnet, ($200-300)

Front bar, ($250-600)

Reo ($200-300)

Wiring for fog lights (if you dont aleady have them on your S1)

Then on top of that you need to paint it all.

Polish the head lights and wack on some eye lid covers.. will prob cost you $80 all up.

Cheers

I can only find 1set of Sr2 lights in Adelaide and they want $440 for each light so if anyone has a set for sale PM me

Yeah, 4get about the S2 headlights unless your serious about the conversion. Do your lights go clear when you wet them for a second b4 returning to normal? Mine did that so I scrubbed them with different cleaning products. JIF worked the best, then I polished them the other day when I was doing the whole car, and they are now clearer than ever. Try that, both products that many of us have lying around, and are much cheaper than buying a full S2 conversion!!

[POLICE]

do the whole conversion or else it'd look weird, the S1 headlights on my S2 looks like goldfish eyes
