Jaydee Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 I.I.R.C. I've heard Toyota mr2 headlights can be used to replace kat ones. Quote

Swiss Toni Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 The Toyota lamp fits the ET, not too sure about the Kat. Part no comparison? 1 Quote
Nickydodds Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 It's the Toyota MR2 Mk1 light that fits the Kat. Quote
Paulm Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Yep MR2 mk1 light fits Kat and ET., you can get some nice aftermarket MR2 ones. Got a couple of different ones for my ET. Quote
Fazz711 Posted June 2, 2017 Posted June 2, 2017 I can measure the one on my bandit tomorrow for you ( it is off a Kat) Quote
neil w Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 I have an aftermarket Toyota MR2 plastic (crystal) light in my Katana......straight swap. better light and about 1/3 if the weight of standard Quote
johnr Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 mr2 light as people have said. common mod, supposedly a lot brighter than stock with a better beam pattern. Quote
jimbo22 Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) I just ordered these:https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/7x6-LED-Headlights-H4-Light-For-Suzuki-Katana-750-1000-and-the-1100/32801481585.html?spm=2114.13010608.0.0.WnqrAY For testing. Probably will add me some points on a Cafe Racer exhibition - I don't know if I'll be using these for riding though. Will see. I wanted to order clear glass ones, but the looked really poorly made + they didn't have an E-mark. If Katana wont look good with it - I can install it in my ZRX, what a coincidence EDIT: nope. I cancelled. Took a closer look on the picture of Katana with this headlight in place - it's too round. It doesn't fit good enough. Edited June 6, 2017 by jimbo22 Quote
kiwi Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) MR2 clear Headlight only Mod was NO side bulb hole so had to drill that in bottom but you can see it fitted in picture. Sorry forgot but remembered when looking at pictures had to notch out the four corners on the back to fit the original healight retaining frame (you can notice it in second picture). And yes it is a big improvement on original. Edited June 6, 2017 by kiwi Quote
arnout Posted June 6, 2017 Posted June 6, 2017 (edited) Maybe have a look at Raybrig headlights for Toyota MR2 (FH05)? Only sold as a pair though.. Fully plastic.. Fitted them in my old Katana and years later in the new Kat as well.. Edited June 25, 2017 by arnout URL no worky Quote
Chisse Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 You can fint them by searching 5x7, 6x7. Like mine from Aliexpress, 100$ for a pair. Quote
