i guess this is the right forum...anyways

has anyone done there own conversion (or watched the shop when it was done)??

i need to know how to install these headlight brackes and headlights
any help would be greatly appreciated...im searching thru the 240s boards now...thanks

 

ok well i found the installation instructions on this...but now i have an issue...one of the previous owners of my car obviously didnt read there owners manual about where to jack the car up becuase the place where they did (front fender/behind wheel) is all mangled/bent up...so now i cant get my damn fenders off....does anyone here have any ideas/tips on how to get these bolts off...problem is they are bent so badly that i cant get a socket/wrench/or screwdriver in ther to loosen the bolt...i was thinkin maybe heat the metal an bend it back...but i have no tools to do this (the heating part)...

HELP

 

jus get some vise grips and bend em back.

 

lol yea i tried that but didnt have enuf leverage(sp)....i gonna try to take it on base and get it on a lift so that have more room to work w/ instead of layin on the ground....

found another hangup...i mounted my IC where the horns used to be, which OF COURSE is in the way of the headlights...so now i need to fine an L bracket and sumone to weld it to my IC so i can mount it "properly" i called the only place i could think of and they wanted 70 for the bracket and welding...HELL no...so yea...

im gettin OWNED hardcore by this damn conversion

 

easy fix, goto an exhaust shop, offer em 20 bucks, to weld the bracket for ya, or offer a case of beer, and they let you do it yourself..

 

or if ur in the NOVA area, pm me, and ill weld it for ya.

 

lol yea thats what im gonna end up doin

 

unfortunately im not thanks for the offer

What model 240 is it? If it’s an s14 u don’t need the headlight brackets or anything special. All u have to do is take out the old ones remove the stock fenders and install the new ones hold the headlights up to the radiator support and see were the projector back housing hits and cut a circle hole were it hits. All the holes and bolts are right were the light holes and bolts line up. Mad easy the only hard part is the wiring witch is nothing more then time consuming. Bolt them right up and align the front bumper at the same time even the bumper bolts to the existing headlight brackets that come on the S15 headlights.
