Are jdm sir headlamps glass or plastic? I bought me a set of plastic ones and wanted to be sure cause now I hear that the zc ones are plastic so now i'm scratchin my head on this one.

 

to my knolage SiR lamps are glass and ZC plastic, if so u got hoed

 

I have 2 sets of SIR headlights and one is plastic (JDM) and the other is glass (Europe). It is easy to tell if you have the SIR lamps.... the are longer than the US or ZC lamps and on both of my sets they only use 1 light bulb (H4H).

Hope this helps.

 

mine are plastic(JDM)

 

My SIR headlamps are plastic, they were off a JDM clip. So do the European ones look just like the jap ones, except they are glass??

 

There are a few little differences. The housing for the euro spec lamps look to be a little larger (depth wise). Also on my euro lights, they have an electronic leveling system so you can adjust the beam height from inside the car or something like that. I’m not quite sure though. They do have a little motor attached to the leveling adjuster.

damn, that must be awesome.....!!!!!!!!!!!!! someone from europe knows more about this???

 

oh, BTW, mines are also plastic. as far as i know, all jdm headlights from the EF and EG are plastic, not glass...... correct me if i'm wrong.

 

Yes, they are made of plastic.

 

The JDM lights have what I can only discribe as a "crown adjuster" it kinda looks like a beer cap on the back of the light housing.

 

my JDM headlights are plastic.

 

yep mine are plastic

 

EDM VT (siR) indeed has electronic height adjustability... the one I had before AND the one I drive now both do anyway
