mr2 ref pix needed

i'm looking for some pix of an mr2 that has those 'lazy' looking flip up headlights. they look like the stock headlights turned on but is probably only half the size of the stock ones. i think they have these on some of the nsx's that i've seen as well as some rx7s. any help would be appreciated.

I'm also looking for photos of the 2000GT MR2 bodykit. I'd like to convert Fujimi's SW20GT to this wide-body style, and it's hard to find top and side views anywhere on the web.. the only thing I can find are perspective photos. Has anyone found any more?

Thanks for the links.

A lot of the sites describing the 2000GT aero parts say that it adds 2 inches per side. When this kind of description is given, does it mean that 2 inches are added at the widest cross-sections, or at the narrowest areas, as shown below?

The narrow part. The GT rule allows the team to increase the fender width by up to 50 mm each side. The TRD 2000GT is widened by this maximum allowed value on both sides. It's about 2 mm each side in 1/24 scale.

appleseed, this is the only pic i could find. i know i have a lot somewhere but it'll take me a while to look through them all.


sausage, not trying to flame you, but you hi-jacked this thread. maybe you could start your own. also, i have pics of what you want, just can't find them yet either. i'll pm you when i find them, unless you start a thread.

Here's another one I found.
It seems that it's up by only about 5 cm or so.

thanks for the pix. i saw a pic of an mr2 with low profile headlights that have a line that is almost parallel to the ground when open. i saw this on an nsx on the streets in san francisco and thought that it would be a good conversion. i'm currently debating on the F40 style headlights or the ones i just described. however, looking for reference pictures of the latter is quite challenging.
