    98 Galant Clear Headlights and Bodykits

    Hey ClubVR4. This is my first post so make me feel welcome. I am one of the newest members of the club having just paid my membership up to the English branch of the operations. Nice to meet you all.

    First question is about clear headlights. Bearing in mind that I have black tail lights like the ones in the picture what are the best headlights for me? I have included 2 examples from my searches

    Also does anyone know if I will need to import them or can someone get them in for me here in NZ?

    Also what would be the best bodykit for my Galant VR-4?

    Thanks in advance guys.

    Those headlamps look the wrong shape.... are you sure they're not for a diamante?

    This site has a couple of cheap kits. They are in the US and I have no idea how much shipping would be.

    For $329 to include front bumper and skirts for back and sides, it would have to be expensive before you need worry!

    These are the headlights for the 99-03 version of the galant. I was wondering if you could convert them to work in a 98 galant. Does anyone know if this is possible? Also I became a paid-up member of the club and just want to know if my membership has been processed.

    The headlights look American. I am not sure if those fit the JDM cars. If they are interchangeable then they will fit your car. Bear in mind that the reflectors will be pointing the wrong way as they drive on the wrong side of the road!

    You membership has been processed - your name now appears in blue with CVR4 Member printed underneath it. You should also be able to see the members area from the main forums page.

    those headlights will only fit the USDM G... now as for the kits, pretty much all the kits in the US are JDM fitment anyway, so you could get any kit from here and it will bolt right up... and if anyone wants the altezza tails like in the pic i can get them to you for about $200 or a little more...

    98 Galant VR4 Headlights

    Just wondering if the headlights seen here are the real deal for the 98 Galant VR4?

    They look fine! Wonder where he got them from.. since he's selling it to the US market one might wonder if they are for driving on the right side of the road..
