k12 headlights

[ajayvaid]

I'm fixing my micra as I've damaged the front bumper and wing so I'm looking at possibly replacing my headlights (as they have wear on them from a previous owner).
I've found some black ones and wondered what peoples views are of the black headlights and if anyone could post a picture of what they look like on a k12 as I'm unsure if I should buy them.

I have a black Micra btw!

Never heard of black ones, have you got a link?

 

[ajayvaid]

there are plenty available on the internet and ebay, here are a few sites selling them:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/NISSAN-2003-8-HEADLIGHTS-HEADLAMPS-ELECTRIC/dp/B004Q5Q3RE


I can't find any pictures of Micras with black lights though, so I don't know if it will look good or not

H'mm never seen them before. Bit expensive if you ask me as there are some genuine ones on ebay for £25

Oh yeah I know, I was just showing easy links as some of the pics on ebay aren't the best..

But £25!? where?

They're like the ones on the 160SR.

Hi I put the black headlights that i replaced for the chrome ones, I will take a pic tomorrow.

I`ve got a Tekna version and got also the black housing headlights

 

[dashimoto]

black looks nice.. think the jdm 12sr had black too.
anyone got projectors?

 

[SkunkMunkey3000]

Had projectors on the Puma, were the most useless lights I've ever used, you'd see more having candles on the bonnet. fitted 6000k HIDs in the end but due to the terrible design most cars on standard lights were still brighter!

 

[azb786]

I have replaced the chromes ones to black headlight too...

 

[dashimoto]

looks good
carbon wrap bonnet?

 

[azb786]

Yeah its the carbon vinyl, I have done the spoiler too

Lovin the black headlights...especially on a black or white micra

Agreed....

if i do say so myself...and a straight swap if you have the silver/chrome backed ones

 

[Omy]

these black lights are the ones that come stock on the sport+ and 160sr models right ?

Correct
I think they were possibly an option at sale too...so you may luck out with a model variant such as an SX or XS in a scrap yard?

 

[Omy]

Oh ok was just wondering
ive got them on mine as ive got a Micra Sport+

EDIT: Yes ive seen them on some SX Models too !

 

[Jen319]

No problem
luckily haven't got any damage on either of mine, but I think we'll have to change my mums at some point though
...the clouding problem has come back a bit <_< (hers are the chrome/silver backed) think hers would look better in black too

 

[Omy]

Lol haha
mind you theres a pair on ebay for £90 !
also a single n/s black headlight for £30 !
might be worth buying and waiting until a cheap o/s comes along !

 

[Jen319]

I could go for that ^_^
...I'm pretty patient...my mother on the other hand LOL

 

[Omy]

Lol haha completley understandable ! ;D

Whilst we Are on the subject of the k12 headlights, does anyone know where I can get the headlights where the indicator is in the headlight unit as a sort of teardrop?

^Hi VitzJoe, You may struggle to get these as a reasonable price...I haven't seen them outside of Australian and Thai K12's
besides I think the indicators, where they are on UK versions, are clearer to other road users..
....of course these headlights would be absolutely brilliant if you're planning on changing your bumper completely/covering the indicators over

Good luck ...and if you do go for these don't forget, as well as quite alot of postage, you will almost certainly Have to pay import tax and possibly a brokerage fee to the courier too... <_<

Where do u buy the black headlights mate?

Where do u buy the black headlights mate?

Almost any parts site you can find. Its an original nissan headlight. You just need to know where to look. I dont know what parts sites are popular in the UK or wherever you re from
So you ll need to do a quick google search for "Micra k12 parts"

Original nissan Parts numbers. (Note: this is a cheaper headlight due to not having headlight adjusting motors.)
