Tail light conversions..need help

TargaMKII · 02-17-2006, 01:11 AM

i have a 1985 supra i bought for 400..and ive done all the body work needed and eliminated all the rust and cut the hood so i could make a makeshift hood scoop..which looks great...but im looking for something to do with the tail lights..has anyone did any tail light or headlight conversions on a MKII supra...im thinking about a MKIV conversion but i at least want to know if there are any kits around or would it all have to be custom..thanks

The MKIV tails are a bad move IMO..Ive seen pics of one and there shape DONOT compliment the MKII..Ill post the pics if i can find them..I recomend just tinting them or you can make your own..Ive got a pic you may like let me find it..You may be able to put a set of Acura NSX projector lights in the front with some mods..

Here is the pic of the MKVI tails.. http://photobucket.com/albums/a211/m...urrent=mk4.jpg These next pics came from Japan..The first is a set of tail light louvers that are made some where.. I dont know if there still made anymore or not.. Then the next one is a custom made set.. http://photobucket.com/albums/a211/m...urrent=oh2.jpg http://photobucket.com/albums/a211/m...rent=tails.jpg

Keep em stock, may be smoke em. MK4 tails belong on MK4's only IMO.

thanks for the help midwest..ive seen some good conversions..but the ones you have pics of i dont like..so maybe i have to go another direction...im putting a mk3 body kit on as soon as i can so itll give the lights a different look..hopefully after i do that itll look ok

well.. i havent seen one mk2... but i have an uncle who put the mk4 taillight on his mk3... and i dont like it... cause it have the key hole on the taillight and i dont like that look... and beside it didnt look good either... just keep your stock one with those japanese conversion kit.. cause i saw one from this one japanese mk2 import magazine from tokyo where my bro. marine base on... its all japanese writing so cant read i just look on the pix.. but its great conversion kit tho... but anyway just try something else n mention those mk4 on the mk2.... i hope there is taillight that will match our mk2.... post pix up when you done so i all can see the convertion alright...
