Post upgrading to 04 lights?

I don't think this has been asked before.. and also don't know if this is even possible. But owners of the original shape S2000, have you thought about updating the lights to the new 04 model? Is this possible to do with the headlights and rear clusters?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Leon

Rear clusters - there's a few US guys who have done it, one has posted up detailed instructions if you have a quick search.

Hardtop guy sells a complete kit too - www.hardtopguy.com

Hmmm, sounds like a lot of effort for not a lot of gain???

Aren't the light clusters really expensive too? Why not buy some performance mods instead with your $$$$'s? You'll get a lot more enjoyment!!

Yeah I agree - it does all add up.. then hassle of ordering parts, waiting, paying a garage to carry out the work (I dont trust myself!)... it's not really worth it. Might just have to work and save up for the new shape lol

I'd do the front bumper, and that's about it. Maybe the rims if I got them cheap enough.
