j_jza80 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 They should be a direct swap on a pre facelift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPG Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Are the bulbs not slightly different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Are the bulbs not slightly different? That's why I said "should". It's been done plenty of times, so it must be straight forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 IIRC you can put UKs straight onto a Jspec. Going the other way can be a little more tricky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham1984 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I have a Jspec with uk glass, you need Hb4 9006 bulbs and the usual Hb3 9005 for dipped and main (can't remember what one for what). Normally Jspecs have Hb3 9005 for both. I have Hids and it's been fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Thread hi jack, Are facelift headlights a straight swap into a pre facelift? No. Pre facelift sidelights are in the headlight, facelift sidelights are in the indicators. I think the wiring needs extending, but it should be well documented on here.

Tommyd16 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 As long as you have something like face light indicators as facelift headlights don't have sidelights in then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Jspecs are both Hb3 9005 for dipped and main, Uk glass has one that is Hb4 9006. I understand that, but they fit and seal just fine. I've never swapped over to 9006 and I've never had an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham1984 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I understand that, but they fit and seal just fine. I've never swapped over to 9006 and I've never had an issue I never knew that, I just went on what the bulb spec thread said and went with that. If it works like that then that's ideal as you already have everything you need OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjy Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I had to buy new bulbs going from UK to Facelifts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never swapped over to 9006 and I've never had an issue The j-spec bulbs will fit in the UK headlights but the holes for the low beam bulbs in the headlights are a wider diameter on the UK headlights, they probably will be okay but if there are any problems with condensation that may be reason.

Nic Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) Thread hi jack, Are facelift headlights a straight swap into a pre facelift? The facelift headlights are a straight swap on a pre-facelift Supra - fitment and bulbs are the same - however as said you'll also need to fit facelift indicators/sidelights which aren't a straight swap as the wiring harnesses needs some modifying, see here: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?31633-How-To-Fit-facelift-front-indicators Edited August 28, 2014 by Nic (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
