how to make lazy eye for me cartracer_240sx 02-04-2004, 10:27 PM sup.... i have a nissan 240sx 91 and i was wondering how can i make my headlight into lazy eye version???.... plz reponse KenOhki2112 02-04-2004, 11:11 PM Just pop the hood and raise them up manualy. You'll have to re raise them after every time you turn your headlights on (assuming they work properly) because it will close them all the way back down. It's a pain in the ass, but it's the totaly free way. =) Project_ZenkiS13 02-04-2004, 11:14 PM although u could have very easily used the search function for this i'll jump in before others get ther flame on. u can manually adjust the height of ur headlights. pop ur hood and disconnect each of the headlight motors. u do this by disconnecting the plugs located just below and to the inside of each headlight. u might have a lil difficulty pulling them out but they will come out. u should also tape these plugs up to prevent water from getting inside them. next, look right next to each headlight and remove the black cover for the manual headlight adjuster. once removed u will see a knob u can turn to manually adjust ur headlights to the desired height. u will no longer be able to the button to retract ur headlights unless u reconnect the motor. if u wish to still be able to electronically raise and lower ur headlights then i suggest purchasing a Pivot headlight controller... in the future i suggest using the search button before asking a question that has been covered a million times. do a good search first and then if u still havent found the answer post a new thread. canisay182 02-05-2004, 04:06 AM or if you still want to be able to pop them up like normal and have the sleepy look when they are off you can first pop the hood and dissconnect the power from the lights. then look right beside(on the inside) of the lights and find the controler arm there will be a nut on the end of the controler arm where it connects to the headlight motor just dissconnect the arm there and adjust the light to where you want it(the look you want) then just put the arm back on the motorand tighten the nut do the same for the other side. it might take a few times to get them exactly the same and you will have to cycle the lights up and down to make sure they are the same. it know it sounds like a hassle but this is what i did to mine after i got tired of having to pop my hood and manually move them up at night. but what ever works for you . if you have any questions just ask i might have not explained it very well stealthj 02-05-2004, 02:22 PM pivot headlight controller i have one if u want it i have never instaleld it ill give it to you $250 shipped, that means free shipping :) Fliquer 02-06-2004, 02:17 AM Or just dont do it lazy eyes make the car look broken canisay182 02-06-2004, 02:55 AM Or just dont do it lazy eyes make the car look broken only to those who don't know what it is jgmodelcars 02-06-2004, 11:06 AM doesn't this cut down severly on visibility without some sort of headlight mod? i mean you pretty much have the light angled down, and probably only half the light is showing?? stealthj 02-06-2004, 02:06 PM doesn't this cut down severly on visibility without some sort of headlight mod? i mean you pretty much have the light angled down, and probably only half the light is showing?? dont dirve at night nbw 02-07-2004, 07:06 AM only to those who don't know what it is not to be an ass or anything.. but I fail to see the point.. or "what it is.." just a humble question mind you :) mynismo 02-07-2004, 08:59 AM not to be an ass or anything.. but I fail to see the point.. or "what it is.." just a humble question mind you :) take a look at these guy's headlights http://images.cardomain.com/member_images/8/web/236000-236999/236112_116_full.jpg Fliquer 02-07-2004, 12:39 PM If it werent for the intercooler, wheels, and the fact that those are aftermarket headlamps with dual bulb chambers, i dont think it would look cool. Chris240 02-07-2004, 01:34 PM i think the car is ugly, mostly b/c of the fender flares... KenOhki2112 02-07-2004, 09:31 PM i think the car is ugly, mostly b/c of the fender flares... I like those flares, wonder where you could pick some of those up. Soyo 02-07-2004, 11:26 PM just make a switch, theres a thread about it on here somewhere so I'm not going deep into detail, but all it is is an on/off switch and you leave it on and the lights work normal but turn it off and they don't move, so flip the lights to go up and as they go up hit the off switch and it will stop them half way or wherever you want them, cheap way to do it and easy if you know much about running wires and crap or I've heard someone sells some kind of kit that only makes them go down partially, I heard it was $90 but that was a while back so with the new drift craze they price may have jumped quite a bit mynismo 02-07-2004, 11:51 PM If it werent for the intercooler, wheels, and the fact that those are aftermarket headlamps with dual bulb chambers, i dont think it would look cool. the car is well above 500hp... anything he does to it is cool :iceslolan drift240sxdrag 02-08-2004, 12:23 AM yes you can do it manuelly and yes there is a controller that u can buy for 90 bucks http://www.autoimaging.com/shop/ind...200713&cat=158& made by pivot OR u can do it urself for an easy 5 bucks you need two things 1.) A wire/cable 2.) A toggle switch both can be bought at Kragens, Auto Zone etc etc for no more than $5.00 anyways. left of the steering wheel there is the headlight button that when pressed/on it makes the headlights pop up no matter if the lights are on or off. pop out the button cover and you should see wires underneath it take the Light Green wire and cut it. then take the wire you bought and splice it to that wire and hook it up to the toggle switch make sure you leave enough room for the wire so you can run it where you want. [ i have mine by my ash tray ] now to test to see if you did it right. turn the toggle switch OFF and push the headlight button. [ head lights should pop up [ if not already up ]] now press it again [ if you did it right it will not go down ] now flip the toggle and the headlights will start to go down. before it goes all the way down flip the toggle agian and it will stay. wa' la! $5.00 sleepy eyes i've done this mod myself. and it works fine. here are some pics of my POS (this was on the first day i have the eyes lower now) http://members.lycos.co.uk/wh0amanwh0a/kevin.jpg http://members.lycos.co.uk/wh0amanwh0a/kevin2.jpg Chris240 02-08-2004, 01:20 AM whats up with the autoimaging web site...? i keep getting a "You do not have permission to access the requested file on this server" error no matter what PC I am on AWDSR20 02-08-2004, 09:30 AM no clue! zdude 02-09-2004, 10:38 PM but with the toggle switch way, do you have to set it every time you turn the lights off, or does it stay in that spot everytime you put them back down?? and btw, i think that car looks good, nice and glossy, unlike my nonglossy real pos, and i dont have the strip trim on the outside, i think maybe if you take it off, the car will look better, not sure tho http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/500/117028DSC00133.JPG stealthj 02-10-2004, 03:31 AM but with the toggle switch way, do you have to set it every time you turn the lights off, or does it stay in that spot everytime you put them back down?? and btw, i think that car looks good, nice and glossy, unlike my nonglossy real pos, and i dont have the strip trim on the outside, i think maybe if you take it off, the car will look better, not sure tho http://files.automotiveforums.com/gallery/watermark.php?file=/500/117028DSC00133.JPG zdude im hella jockin your rims, u plan to sell them? zdude 02-10-2004, 04:10 PM if i sell em, i have nothing to put on, maybe in the future tho. rims arent my top priority now tho. powersteering, d/s mirror, springs and ball joint in the f/l are my top priorities. then the body work. I<3hks 02-10-2004, 05:52 PM the website admin could have deleted the link and instead of getting a unavaliable message (default by web browswers) The web admin placed that page there instead.... basically the person who posted the link may have had it in his or her favorites for a while and the page simply is not there any more. pertaining to what someone asked about the error message from above when trying to get to the link advertized grncivicdhr 02-10-2004, 08:30 PM no one answered the visability question. is it total shit without some kinda new headlights? if so where can you get the new headlights at to accommodate this mod? just wondering cuz a crash with a deer has left me with some work to do on emy right headlight. the ball joint part broke and now it just stays up when i prop it with whats left of that rod. so if i hit a bump it falls down and it i hit 70mph or so it shoots straight up in the air. drift240sxdrag 02-13-2004, 01:49 PM sorry about the very late reply... yea u gotta set it everytime with the toggle switch after u turn ur headlights on and off. its not that big of a deal. for the cheap way i guess it would be worth it. i have no problem doin it. zdude 02-13-2004, 11:22 PM i spose i could do it, but i have too many switches in my car already i.e. fog lights, snake eyes, some random switch next to the snake eye switch. the fog lights i found out are completely worthless, the wires goin up front are melted to shit, and the fuse for em is melted into the fuse housing...anywho, im bored, so i talk to much, dont mind me, im not here Soyo 02-14-2004, 10:54 AM if the random switch by the snake eyes switch isn't being used then just run the wires to that switch instead of buying one, there should be someway to do that DropTop88RX7 08-14-2005, 11:47 AM i've done the switch Lazy Eyes on my RX7 and it works well. What i did was i ran the wires right to the retractor motor fuse in the fuse box via Original Wiring harness, and than spliced a 30 amp inline fuse in at the switch... NiSmO_zt 08-14-2005, 02:07 PM or, you could just modify the switch youve got, and not install a toggle switch, take the headlight pop switch out of the cluster, cut the brown wire, then put it back in. it does the same thing as the toggle switch, but its built into the dash now. you just turn the lights on, press the modded pop up switch, turn the lights off, and the pods will stay up. then press teh new modded switch, and the lights will begin to fall, press the modded switch again and it will stop them. good thing here is, it takes 2 seconds, and when you turn you lights on at night, they pop up like normal, because you cannot drive with stock headlights in lazy form. you have to do what ive done, or buy $500 aftermarket lights http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/4/web/772000-772999/772010_58_full.jpg Soyo 08-14-2005, 07:29 PM wow, this is old... I posted in it haha zdude 08-14-2005, 07:42 PM haha. id still sell my rims to stealthj but they are melted to shit along with the rest of the car. :rofl: which im pretty sure was crushed a while back.
