    I think he made his headlights using projectors from a BMW...I could be wrong.

    There's not many choices for headlights for our cars. There's the US plastic ones, Japanese plastic(skinnier headlights and different corner lenses), European glass headlights(some are hieght adjustable), and some German aftermarket ones that show up on E-bay every so often. Then there's the retro-fit ones such are Mirage headlights, and then custom headlights.

      you're right. the 92-95 bmw 3 series headlights will fit but if you have a 94 pro then you would have to change your hood to a 90-93 one or do some cutting of your hood to shave the middle down straight.

        So, to sum it all up.......

        For your '94, you can use:

        - '94 Protege/323 USDM plastic headlights (what you already have)
        - '94 Protege/323 JDM plastic headlights (JDM/EDM directionals needed)
        - '94 Protege/323 EDM glass headlights (JDM/EDM directionals needed)
        - Mirage halos

        If you wanted to change your hood and grille over to the 90-93 Protege style, you could use the BMW headlights that Identity X uses.

          you would be correct. all 323 year's came with the slant eyes.

            "There's a hierarchy of insanity in motor sports. Normal people think all racers are crazy. Folks who race sedans think people in open-wheel cars are nuts. People who race cars of any kind think motorcycle racers are absolutely off theirs meds. But there's one group that everyone agrees is made up of the most extreme, the most daring, and absolutely craziest people in racing - rally racers."

              No, the older 323's without the BG chassis have the big, square headlights.


              So to correct what Chris said, all 323's with the BG chassis have the same slant headlights (same as '94 Protege as well).
