JDM Fairlady headlights with no lines or nipples

Does anyone know where I can get ahold of a pair of JDM headlights? The OEM headlights have nipples and lines going through them. The JDM headlights have a completely clear lens with no nipples or lines. I've been told that some JDM headlights have a smoked lens. Any info would be appretiated.

Thanks

If you look closely at my signature you can see that there are no lines or nipples on those headlights.

I think you're getting confused with the 99 HID Fairlady headlights that come with the chrome housing. You're right, those are about $1600. The headlights that I'm refering to are just the regular headlights that Z's have in Japan that don't have the lines or nipples.
I saw the headlights on ebay once a long time ago. I haven't seen them lately. If anyone comes across them please let me know.

Yes, I said nipples...

Anyways, I was sitting in my t-com class this morning pondering...and I realized that it is possible that these headlights may be available in Mexico! Yes, you heard right. This might be possible because a friend was telling me of wanting to get a rare set of headlights for his 93 Sentra. In Mexico, the Sentras are called Lucinos, and Tsurus. These cars in Mexico are odd. They are half JDM, 1/4 US OEM, and 1/4 MDM. He he Unlike the headlights for the Sentras here, those headlights are different. When I was in Mexico last Christmas, I saw the Lucino and the Tsuru and called my buddy right away to tell him about these headlights. He ended up selling the car shortly after I got back because he was going away for college. Anyway, my family lives in the city Morelia, in Mexico; therefore, I'm going to ask my uncle to go to the Nissan dealership just to check out the headlights available for the Zs there. If they're the JDM headlights than WALA!

Here you can see the difference. US Original Equipment Manufacturer first, then Mexico Original Equipment Manufacturer.

Hecho en Mexico.

So, if it's 1/2 JDM, 1/4 USDM and 1/4 MDM, does that make it Puertorican?

Is that a chin spoiler on that Sentra?!? Talk about unnecessary.

Getting back to that Sentra....Why would they equip the mexican version with those headlights? Those look so much better than the USDM version. Go you have a picture of the engine on that car. Looks like he did some other work to it. It looks like it has the Optima battery also.
