Default Ucf20 headlamps on ucf10

hi guys

Anyone know if ucf20 (non facelift non xenon versions) fit ucf10 in terms of height and width?

Cheers

Not even close - very different shape and size ... especially the height. The only non-OEM alternative for the UCF10 are the Eagle Eye headlights: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...agle-eyes.html

Depending on where you are (i.e. "International") you may already have headlights far better than the Eagle Eye headlights.

Cheers. Only problem is the eagle eyes are for left hand drive versions. I am in Australia. Unless the eagle eyes can be modified or adjusted for rhd?

You would have to contact an Eagle Eye seller to ask. I see them listed on eBay.au but the source is shown as the United States.

The Eagle Eye headlights described in the thread I mentioned have fog lights where you may have high beams and have no provision for adjusting the beam with a dashboard mounted switch. The headlights we got in North America on the 90-94 LS400 were fairly crude compared to those in other world markets.

Thanks. Will do. My 93 LS doesn't have the cabin lamp aim adjustment like the eu and uk versions.

Does anyone know if Right hand drive projectors retrofitted in the left hand drive eagle eyes would work cutoff wise?

Have you ever looked into the JDM 1-piece headlights? I'm 99.9% sure those are RHD-friendly in design.

Yes, that would work fine since the lenses on the Eagle Eyes headlights are clear and not fluted and RHD projectors would do all the beam control. Here is a thread from someone who installed projectors in Eagle Eyes: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls4...-retrofit.html

Thanks, I'll probably go that option.
