I think hes looking for a low rise kit.

Anyways the way to do it is get a shorter prop rod, tamdinh was the guy who used to make them, dont know if he still does. Hes on the Mr2oc message boards you gotta try him that way.

HAHA its called the sleepy eye conversion. I dont like it but a lot of people do

To convert the lights into low-rise-ones is not so much work.

First you need is the smaller lights, then you´ll just have to shorten the motor-lever and the sub-lever (next part to the motor-lever)

When your light are h=70mm you have to shorten the levers:
Motor lever: Measured between center screw and center ball is 19mm.
Sub-lever: Has to be shortend by 30mm

With those measures it should work.
You can adjust it perfect by screwing it in our out a little, just try - you´ll see it´s easy...

The only thin I don´t know is, if it´s allowed by U.S. Law?!?
(In Germany those lights are not allowed, because we need to have asymetric driving light. We changed to Rev.6 for TÜV / Inspection)

The best lights you could use for low-rise (low-rice headlights

) are PIAA 900

I love the rev6 lights, sometimes the sleepy look is good, but if you have the stock bulbs in there, it just looks weird. imo
