Hey peoples
I currently own a 2nd gen '92ES300 and am looking at buying a 3rd Gen '97ES300.
I was just wondering if its possible to swap the headlights over before i sell the '92 car
I like the projector headlights on the 2nd gen and I also have the HID's already on them.

Any tips or advice would be much appreciated.
cheers

 

They won't fit. I know there have been a few people that retrofitted projectors but from Mazda3, 3 series, etc. Smitty had a set on his ES, plenty of info if you search.

 

retro fit = expensive & costly... but looks & performs awesome.

Two options, get the '00-01' HID headlamps again expensive but made for HIDs.

Or do what i did. Get a 4300-6000k kit [anything over that temperature, and if you think is 'better' you should stay away from HIDs altogether]

Simply swap the kit in, adjust them properly and it works fine. I have had it for a couple of weeks now and they are awesome the the light pattern isn't too bad, nor does it blind people.

 

So the 00-01 Headlamps will fit in a 97 right?

I've been having a hardtime finding HID compatible headlamps haha

 

Yes. GL finding virtually non-existent lights!

**i have been keeping an eye out on eBay for months and have yet to see an auction for ONE HID headlamp.
