Can some one build me something like this for my car.

I had something like that on my old teener, you don't want it... the 914 hood does not slope enough, so you have to cut into the bumper to make it work... mine came like that so I didn't have a choice... but it was horrible.

the thread going right now where Neo914 is making HID lights in the turn signals may work though... I'm hoping it does anyway

I think it could work if you just let them be raised a little... even if it spoils the lines, it would add a little character. Somewhat reminiscent of the older acuras IMHO.

I was thinking something more like a 3000GT was where I was going to try and take it... I dunno if it would pass the min. height of a headlight though... it's a lot of work for ???

We're talking about these lights.

Mike S said he was going to start making them and I'm trying to get a status report.

How much do you think a two light (on each side) like your photoshop image would weigh. I am going to weigh a stock housing abd lens this weekend.

I like the look.

We don't see cops with DOT handbooks, and rulers around here.

If they can put a 15" hitch on a truck, that intersects the center of my windshield, I can put my headlights on the back, if I want.

the quality looks good, but I'll hold my opinion to see them on the car... I have my doubts (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

I'm not making them. I'm just pushing the manufacturer to get them into production.

I'm pretty sure I'll get the first set, but I don't have a delivery date yet.

Those are going to look nice I think.....now to figure out something for reverse since the white lights are no longer part of the assembly...i guess one could hook up a beeper/horn to go off while in reverse

Those look very nice but I prefer the original tail lights. The car is square/boxy and the tails flow with it. Round tail lights just don't flow with the car. IMO.

As to the non-pop-up head lights, well, the examples shown so far don't look right to me. I like the idea of pop-up headlights, weight be damned! Maybe if the headlights popped-up 1/2 the distance and used the projector-style headlights? I know with Euro-spec H4's in my previous teener did a great job lighting up the night (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)

IMO.. .they look a bit "ricey".

Are clear taillights in the offering too? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

LED 911R type lamps

I have these on my 911

i'm still undecided for a 914 application.
i can tell you that to pass state inspection in PA, they'll NEED some kind of white backup light (which yes means i'll need two sets, if i want to run the French light assemblies i've been lusting after...)

but i am growing to like the idea more and more for the 911, since it's headed for a "transitional/prototype" kind of feeling...

remind me where i can get the ('71) 911 versions ?

Somebody put those on a car...... I can't decide if I like 'em or not. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

Either way I would not buy 'em, but that is not where I am going with my car. Just my .02.
