JDM headlights. . .

I was wondering if anyone here knows where I can get some S14 Zenki Headlamps. My lights are all yellow and grimey, and I cant afford the german glass ones, so does anyone know where I can get the JDM ones from. . somewhere online maybe?

P.S I'll post pics of my car soon.

wouldn't JDM lights be aimed wrong? IE for driving on the left side of the road instead of right side.....

why not just get a USDM set if JDM are plastic as well?

rubbing compound and mother's plastic polish are what I use, gives them that shine.

nah the yellow is on the outside. Use some elbow grease, and take your time, it'll clean up. I bought my car with yellow head lights, they ain't yellow no more....

I using a combination of 3M Fine Cut Rubbing Compound and Mother's Plastic Polish..... the plastic polish did more than the compound, IMHO.

I bought both of them an applied them, it worked well for the most part, but the lights are still a little darker then my corner lights. you think if I keep applying them it will look almost new again?
