anybody have a "sleepy eye" kit?
 

i was wondering if anybody has some sugestions on the "sleepy eye" kits. u know... do they make em' for an 87? how good do they work? that sorta thing. someone broke my headlight bracket so i need to replace it anyway.

they dont make them

there is no kit, i havent done this...and i dont plan to..not sure if its the same but i know for a 240...teh old ones with tha pignose....flip lights that is if you play with the switch and the solenoid behind it...you can adjust hte position of the lights to where you want it....you can get the look that way... not sure if this works for the supra...since i dont feel like poppin the switch to get to teh solenoid

my friends 93 240 is tricked out to do the sleepy eye look, it was really nothing to it. it took him less than four minutes, literally. In the 240 on the headlight switch, theirs a brown wire he cut. and now his lights are fully adjustable and able to set at any position he wants...

im pretty sure its much different for our cars though.... :dunno:

yea you can also leave the headlights on, and turn the power off while in teh middle of turning the lights off...so when the car is off the lights are in midposition and you could adjust them, then cut that brown wire, takes a bit of skill though

in a 240? or are you saying theirs a brown wire for the MK3?

in the 240

i have done this to my 91 supra before. first of all all flip light cars have knobs on them that you can manually adjust just incase one of your flip lights fails to flip. this knob can be found right by the light under the hood(inner side of the light). my knob has a rubber cap on it i am not sure about yours. before you start adjusting you need to disconnect a wire also right next to the light so that the lights will stay the way you want them and not flip up and down. this wire has a quick disconnect on it all you have to do is disconnect that and they will not flip up and down. the wire is pretty easy to find, its like the only wire by the light(on the inner side of the light). if you decide to do this in the wintertime i suggest covering each of the quick disconnect ends so nothing gets in there and ruins your connection. also i suggest using a ruler to get the correct measurement of how far each light is.

let me know if you have any more questions about this

once u set the angle of the lights, how do u make it so the lights are not just pointing at the ground?

just raise em so they are high enuf that you get some light(halfway?) i put mine back to normal so i forget. i have fog lights that are bright too so that makes up for it. just make sure they arent too low that you dont have any light and they arent "too sleepy". they will always be pointing lower than normal when you have sleepy eyes.


does that help?

this is what i did and the lights point straight when they're open only 2 inches....unscrew the 2 little screws taht hold the lamp in and get 2 3 inch screws with 2 2 1/4 inch plastic tubes that fit around the screws....put the screws in the frame holes and tubes onto the screws ...put some jb weld along the bottom the the lamp and frame and let it dry...then juss screw them in n wa la....thats what i did....ORRRRR you can get gmc fog lamps that are as wide as the supra lamps but are2-3 inches in height n do the same procedure....

does the 87 have this option?

if they were pointing straight up, they wouldnt be sleepy, they would be awake eyes lol... but theres another way they do it in the 240sx that involves 2 switches you install, and you just fuck with them and adjust the lights how you want, like one switch cuts the power to the motors as there going up, so you turn the lights on, and hit the switch on and off and themotor flicks up a little each time... ill ask my boy how to do it in a min after we finish throwing these adjustable control arms and tension rods on his 300z

There is a light wire underneath the dash you cut that and then hook a switch up to it so you can flip the switch when the lights are at the positon you want, but it will shut off the head lights cause the switch will then act like a breaker

there you go hope its there wen you look they are universal for all cars mki mkii mkiii you can buy it re fabricate or check out the wiring then sell it again so someone else can do the same or use it thatas what i did so yeahhh or easy way to do it is get you lights to the level you want them with the red knob and just unplug the wire harness they will still work just wont go up or down

they are super easy to make your self

Lol yesterday, I set the lights to the way I liked them, then just unplugged the power going to the motors. :D

Can't you just turn that red knob until it raises up to the correct height then disconnect the plug for the motor?
