Who Has "TSI's"
My car is a 1992 and It has a broken parking light. Funny thing is that my Dad told me his light on his 91 BRG also broke. I said drivers side? Yup! So we both have broken drivers side parking lights:vash:
Should I go with TSI's or just get a used lenses? I like the TSI's on dark cars but I dont know if it will look good on the Yella with the type II nose? I guess I just want to know if the TSI work and or are worth it? |
Get a used lens. TSI's have been shown to not work or somehow air is drawn Out of them instead of in. Naca headlight ducts however are functional.

I like my TSIs, even if they don't work :)

That is the thread on here where this was discussed but i thought i went through a thread were someone did tests and found the TSI's created a highpressure area behind the radiator and that affected cooling negatively. Either way, if i had an NA i would go Naca duct. |
What about the chrome clear ones on ebay? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/90-97...QQcmdZViewItem
You can get them cheap, But are they TOO RICEY?:ugh2: I would like to get a pair of whatever so they match. I hate it when people have a car with MILES on it and replace a broken or worn Headlight with a brand new one. Why not just do them both. |
I say it's to rice just because nowadays ever POS on the highway has housings with a clear lens, silver back and red reflector . I like the stock lenses and if you call partsgroup.com or mazmart in atlanta i bet they could hook you up. I'm not affiliated but I have done business with both. Shipping is always fast.

I'm not sure how effective they are but I do love my TSI's. And they look great on my 94M. Maybe you could paint or powder coat them a dark color to contrast the yellow paint?

I just bought some tsi's from miatamania and I'm very pleased. I have a 92 black miata, and I just slapped them in, no painting no nothing. There is a slight difference in color, but my front bumper is faded anyways so it kinda blends in. As for functionality, my engine bay used to get hot as hell, but its a lot better now. I'm not sure about the tests others ran, but after running it on the freeway for about 30 min hard, it felt a lot better than it used to. But as Braineack said before, anything (tsi or naca) is better than nothing.
