looks like a good start.

Are those the "euro" headlights? Would it be easier to retrofit projectors into that housing?

Looking good, one of my favorite colors on th 3rd gen as well as one of my fav rims. Just a small drop, those lil bumper blemished removed and the car would look a hell of a lot better but its good so far.

maybe you should try stillen.com

it amazes me that people don't look at the obvious sites first.

Last I looked they had it for $389 with free shipping.

yes they are the euro headlights. i dont think theres much of a difference in terms of retrofitting difficulty. the only advantage these would have over the stock housing is the clear glass. THEY ARE HORRRIBLE light output without retrofitting (literally look like 2 flashlights)

thanks. I believe i paid $200 off an .org member about 4 years ago...but stillen.com is the best place to get it. i believe the entire kit is just shy of $400.

the euros are good for a single projector system (bixenon) but the e36's are better for a side-by-side high/low setup.

correct! one option ive been playing with is the idea of getting the e36's and using the euro clear lens on the e36 housings. it will probably still be a bixenon setup with the "high" housing as a fog(i wonder if it can be individually aimed)
