Picture Request: JDM 1 peice lense on Ebay one peice housing
Pics of Housing posted.
i started cleaning up my one peice lights i got last week and while i was taking it apart i noticed how the back housing is in a really bad shape...
i can still re-use it. but since i have the lense apart already i was thinking of getting the ebay one peices not the halo ones that i have but the other ones like BVAN's and seperating the lense and housing on that. then putting the jdm one peice on the ebay black housing.
so what im asking for is if anybody has already done that or if anyone has pics of it like that they can post it here.
i would like to see how it would look.
90-93 lights.
Thanks
Heres a rough idea of how it would look. i have looked for it by searching nothing came up i only found the ebay lense on a jdm housing with a retrofit.

how bad are the housings on the JDM 1pc lights? like what exactly is wrong with them?
with the ebay lights you can't aim the bulbs.
if anything, i'd try to salvage the JDM 1pc light and paint the housing black.

by housing I thought you mean the part behind the lense, the chrome part, but yea... never had that problem before, maybe just check eBay for some JDM one piece housing or something... because eBay is awesome.
