  • 300D headlights

    So my buddy and I were at the junkyard getting a five speed for my car to swap in the next couple weeks... and he had the idea that he'd test fit some Mercedes 300D headlights to a festiva... here's how it came out....





    That's me holding an e34 five series grill up next to it... we were trying to find kidney grills so we'd have 300D headlights and a bmw kidney grill on a festiva... lol





    Imagine putting some orange lights/leds behind the surrounding glass/plastic, wire them into running lights... lol

      ^^ditto

      1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
      1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
      2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

      1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

      If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

            It is fun if you have time to play with what works and what does not while in a wrecking yard

                They're the closest to "Bolt right up" we have. Check out Daniel_Cogar's Truckstiva thread in the Garage! I believe it's Page 15-19.

                            Nice... It has grown on me, lol... And am I correct with an aspire brake swap the hubs are 4x100? If so, you can use 14" bottle cap wheels from an e30 BMW (80s-91 3 series)

                              Correct on the pattern and wheels.
