Headlights from D9 in D8?

Post by ebner33 »

Hello guys,just another question:

Will these headlights also fit in my 1998er executive Turbo?
Have the facelift modell other headlights?

I really hope that these headlights will fit, because they look really great!

The answer is not really. You will need a new bonnet, grille and bumper to make it work.

So... realistically, what are a chap's options? Basic Peugeot lights, Beamer-style halos and Lexarse?

Aside from kick-ass custom jobs, of course...

If it's a D8, then everything seems to be custom I'm afraid. I'm going to do the black mask mod to my front lights at somepoint in the near future, and I may do the clear rear light mod too for goo measure. I've also found a place on eBay.de that do the black crystal side repeaters for the D8's.

For off the shelf lights for the D8, I've seen crystal clear side repeaters, black crystal side repeaters, various configurations of chrome lexus rear lights, various configurations of black lexus rear lights and that's your lot as far as I've been able to find so far.
