Default S2000 Ebay headlight lense and OEM lens fitment

well i always wonder if ebay headlight lenses would fit OEM housings. Well i had time to mess with them today and see if it did. Because my old headlight lenses were pretty busted. So i had them on my car, for replacement until i can buy AP2 style headlights. I really like the AP1 headlights so i said what the heck! let try and switch the outer lenses from the ebay ones. So i open both headlight and test fit the OEM housing with the ebay lenses. They fit perfect! So i then painted the amber diffuser 2 stripe mulder's mod and glossed black the housing bezel. Then resealed it back up with extra silicon around the edges. cam out looking awesome! I like the OEM look then the Halo stuff. n.n enjoy!

ebay headlights i bought


Before headlight lenses exchange.


After


hope this help anyone who wants to keep there OEM headlights, and don't want to Dish out alot more money for new OEM. Just get ebay headlights and switch the lenses, and viola! brand new looking headlight again!

here you go, i would figure all S2000 lenses are the same.

Only difference i saw was the Headlight bezel design, which the mounting screws were same spot. Also the headlight housing differ as well. So basically you cannot swap over OEM internal headlight part over to the after market without alot of mods.
