pop up headlights 3rd gen accord
I've tried finding any pics of the "sleepy eye" look on a 3rd gen accord but I cant find anything. Kinda how the 240sx guys do with their popups. If anyone has some pics I'd like to see some. Thanks.

Considering the fact that I haven't a clue (nor will anyone else not familiar with sleepy 240sx's) about what you're talking about, I have no way to advise you.
All I know from my experiences with my '88, is that any interruption from full open to full close will cause the headlight door motor to drain the battery, even with the keys off.
Nope. I've seen
Blinking Accords
Winking Accords
Accords doing Pirate imitations (Aahrgggg)
but none sleepy

I know exactly what you're talking about but I will say that I'd advise if you can get it to work properly you'll be disappointed. Because the lights are at the front of the car and not "in" the hood so to speak like Probes and 240s they look terrible. More retarded than sleepy.

You mean that look where the lights are just barely open right? Maybe you should check a Nissan 240 board, maybe they will have a how to or something on that. I would think the general workings of both the cars would be similar so maybe you can get an idea.

He's going to run into problems if he doesn't do this right.
Interupt the range of movement from full open to full closed, and the bucket actuator motors will drain the battery until it's DEAD DEAD, DEAD.!!
Honda incoroporates micro switches which turn off the actuators when they reach the intended position.
