Spyder Crystal Headlights (Clear Lens) – 1997–1998 Nissan 240SX S14 Kouki | 5012616
Spyder’s crystal headlights for the 1997–1998 Nissan 240SX S14 Kouki — a direct bolt-on replacement for the factory headlight assemblies using the OEM wiring harness and mounting points. The clear outer lens and multi-faceted internal reflector replace the factory’s fluted lens and single-reflector design, producing a cleaner, sharper appearance and improved light output over aged OEM units. A popular upgrade on the S14 Kouki platform for both street builds and show cars.
Kouki vs. Zenki — Fitment Note
The S14 Kouki (1997–1998 facelift) uses a different headlight assembly than the S14 Zenki (1995–1996 pre-facelift) — the two are not interchangeable. This listing is for the Kouki (1997–1998) only. Confirm your specific production year before ordering.
Key Features
- Kouki-Specific Direct Bolt-On: Engineered as a direct replacement for the 1997–1998 S14 Kouki headlight assemblies — uses the factory wiring harness connectors and OEM mounting points. No modification required for installation
- Clear Crystal Lens: Smooth outer lens (no fluting) with clear internal optics — eliminates the yellowed, hazy appearance of aged factory lenses and provides the clean, sharp look of the crystal headlight style popular on JDM S14 builds
- Multi-Faceted Reflector: The internal multi-faceted reflector distributes light more effectively than the factory single-reflector design — improving light output and beam pattern using the existing factory bulbs
- UV-Resistant Polycarbonate Lens: UV-resistant polycarbonate outer lens resists fogging and yellowing over time — maintaining clarity longer than uncoated polycarbonate or aging OEM lenses
- Weather-Sealed Housing: Sealed housing construction prevents moisture ingress — a common failure point on aged OEM S14 headlight assemblies that leads to condensation inside the lens
- Factory Bulb Compatible: Uses the factory bulb specification — no bulb adapter or wiring modification required. Compatible with HID and LED bulb upgrades (bulbs not included)
