most junkyards either have, or can easily get things like that. You can call a few arround town and just ask them. More than likely they can get you what you need, or theres always ebay Mx-3 headlight. So what kind of custom job are you going to do? :welder:

well projectors for one.. how will i go about doing it.. well that depends entirely on one thing.. im thinking about thaking and old set of MX-5 miata headlights.. the ones that alomst fit ours.. gutting them and molding the projectors and things into our headlights. hopefully i will be able to keep some of the MX-5 projector houseing and mount it into the MX-3 rear houseing.. (**crosses fingers**)

well we shall see if i can find both sets of head lights i need :)

It looks like you can still aim them - is that correct? Did you just glue the projectors or drill the oem housing for mounting holes?

I bolted them to the housing and yes u can aim the up&down or side-side.

Driving with fog lamps is A. illegal and B. scary. They don't place the light anywhere near as well or in the proper places.
If you are going to do it you are on the right track, but use some Hella lamps instead. You can buy HID or angle eye attachements or both. It costs a bit more, but please don't rice the hell out of your car like that...

it was an idea i had back when i was a ricer but i use them for show but they where a hell of alot brighter and better sight then the stock shity headlights. i still have them never got pulled over and hey poeple do what they have to do due to lack of aftermaket support for the mx-3

Hellas are 50 bucks each. Good fog set is 50. So for a few hundred instead of 50 you get a superior product. I understand the aftermarket thing, but even if a company did make them it wouldn't be super cheap.
