Flush light kit for FB/SA :NOT CP Racing

Hi, I was considering buying a CP flush light kit, but after reading the negative feed back about CP's dealing's I have reconsidered. Does anyone else make a similar kit? Or have one they want to sell me. I'm in Australia, but USPS will get it here.


Also I've read the the BSP Miata Dual light conversion kit form miata.org can be made to fit FB/SA, can someone verify this for me?

I plan on doing the kit this winter, but am waiting to hear from him on details about what things need to be modified in order for it to fit the 7, etc.

I tried to convert the BSP pop-up kit to my 84,it was quite complex and ultimately not worth the effort.I ended up useing a MidTennMiata flush kit and altering it.Less fab work than the pop-up style, and its lighter.I replaced the dim lowbeams with some street legal Hella projector pods and had the acylic covers recut to fit the FB openings.A little improvization was needed to fit the trays and mount the lids,but it wasnt hard or costly.It isnt weather proof,but it opens easily for cleaning.

So this is infact a Miata (MX5) kit is it. Did you black out the top of the lexan covers or is that how they come?

A bit of a warning on the Floss in the Cootch would have been nice.

But I do love the look of his car.

They must have pulled my pic off the internet and used it for an example.

It is a Miata kit.I had to hack the trays up a bit to fit them.I blacked out the acrylic lids after they were re-cut.We have a vinyl cutting machine at work,but you could do it by hand easily,or just paint the backsides.
