I have a J spec and want to get UK glass headlights, what modification would i need to do to these? or would i be better off getting ones desgined for J spec cars ie what Paul E sells? Also i am looking to get HID's, so if i go for the UK GLass Headlights would i buy HID's desgined for uk or j spec??

 

cheers

None. The only other thing you'd need is the correct bulbs.

Not sure what you mean. There's only one type of glass headlight for the Supra : the UK spec ones. There's no such thing as glass headlights designed for the j-spec.

I wondered about this too, if you have the UK lights but the jap bulbs connectors I thought it might create a problem with which bulbs to get.

 

this puzzles me to Jake, would the uk Bulbs fit on to the jap connectors?? or would i need to get UK connectors too?

Yes 9006(HB4) and 9005(HB3) bulbs should fit connectors and the UK glass headlights, I believe.

 

You'll need an HID kit with 9006(HB4) bulbs.

Which new bulbs do you need, not all of them I hope?

 

You'll definitely need new 9006/HB4 dip beam bulbs, as the J-spec ones have a slightly narrower body, so will not seal into the headlight housing properly. The 9005J high beam bulbs you should be able to make fit, you may need to trim the tabs on the bulb a little, as they are slightly different to the 9005/HB3 which are the correct spec fr the Uk headlights. The fog light bulbs should be a straight swap.
