well lets see i know of 2 ways to do this.

The easist way is to unplug the motors to your herad lights and manual turn the knob to the "sleepy eye" position.

The other way is to buy the kit and install it. I have seen the kit around a few times, but i dont remeber where i saw it at.

and i found a link but the pics dont work, so you all own me big for fixing the pictures here.... well here ya go!

SLEEPY EYE MOD, THE BEST WAY SO FAR:

Here is the best way to make the sleepy eyes, better than Pivot IMHO, cause you can turn the lights on

First, remove the drivers side kick panel, so you'll have better access to the fuse panel.

You'll see this.

Remove the 2 10mm bolts on the left side of the panel, allowing the panel to swing out, exposing a bunch of wires. You may need to remove some zip ties at this point.

Find the small gauge (like 22?) LIGHT BLUE WIRE, with silver dots, it comes from the 5amp Headlight Motor Fuse. Splice a switch into this wire. It's tight in there, but there's plenty of wire to cut, and reconnect with new wires. (Yeah, I know, duct tape sucks....)

Place the switch where ever you want, I put mine inside the center console.

You're done!! With the work that is.

To operate:
-Put switch in "On" position, so the headlights will operate normally.
-Turn headlights "On"
-Flip switch to "Off"
-Turn headlights "Off", lights should go out, but they stay up.
-Flip switch on, then quickly off, the lights will go down a little. Continue doing this until the lights are at the height you desire.
-When happy with the height, leave the switch "Off" and turn the headlights on, the housings will not move, but the lights will turn on.
-To return to normal: flip the switch to "On"

*be careful not to bump the highbeam lever, this will cause the llights to extend fully. also, if you see a cop, "flash" your brights, the lights will go up, and look totally normal.*

End Result:

All thanks to Blacks13 form the SR20 Forums.

i will be doing this so if you wnat better pictures just let me know.

yes you can do it manuelly
and yes there is a controller that u can buy for 90 bucks
http://www.autoimaging.com/shop/inde...00713&cat=158&
made by pivot

OR i found this one way u can do it urself for an easy 5 bucks

you need two things

1.) A wire/cable
2.) A toggle switch

both can be bought at Kragens, Auto Zone etc etc for no more than $5.00

anyways.

left of the steering wheel there is the headlight button that when pressed/on it makes the headlights pop up no matter if the lights are on or off.

pop out the button cover and you should see wires underneath it

take the Light Green wire and cut it.

then take the wire you bought and splice it to that wire and hook it up to the toggle switch
make sure you leave enough room for the wire so you can run it where you want. [ i have mine by my ash tray ]

now to test to see if you did it right.

turn the toggle switch OFF

and push the headlight button.

[ head lights should pop up [ if not already up ]]

now press it again [ if you did it right it will not go down ]

now flip the toggle and the headlights will start to go down.
before it goes all the way down flip the toggle agian and it will stay.

wa' la!

$5.00 sleepy eyes

i will personally try to do the 5 dollars method ASAP
but as of right now i have 3 dollars in my wallet

donations will be accepted

thats wut a lil late night research will do for ya

YOUR a G man.......you know how to SEARCH!

that first how-to is retardedly stupid. there's no need to do all that. you also cant drive with the headlights like that, they wont be properly aimed at the road so you wont be able to see. click the link that Drift posted and you'll figure out the easy and smart way to do it. retards. oh yeah, and duct tape on electrical is a big no no. duct tape has metal in it. metal is a conductor. i think you can figure out the rest.
