That was me.

You really only need to replace the top seals and the eccentric rod guides if the previous tops leaked.. I'm doing it just as a precaution.

As for the gb, I'll start one on both boards.

FTO has got to be the best style...really updates the look of the MKII no longer looks like a car thats design is 15 years old.

justkitteh · 01-31-2006, 10:53 PM

something importaint that no one mentioned... whats the effect to the weight? when they took the pop lights off the miata they say it removed 20 lbs... so... anyone know?

i think i like the nsx lights the most... they just look like they arent trying... and still looking good... like the e type jag or something... the ftos are hott, but they are a bit over styled i think

and are there any mk1 light conversions?

nrados · 02-06-2006, 01:50 PM

actually, i wouldn't mind know that either; and are there any low pop-up/flush mount kits for the MKI?

I got them on ebay from this guy:
http://cgi.ebay.com/MR2-SW20-Head-li...QQcmdZViewItem

They fit really well, This is my 3rd set of flushmounts and I have to say it's probably the best and what I'll stick with. The light is better than OEM and is bright. The lights are adjustable. And the fit is really good (not quite as good as OEM, but really dam close). A little on the expensive side, but when you consider that it comes with all 4 lights, it's really not that much$$.
