I think you might have a helluva time convincing a cop or judge that those are "main lights", not "foglamps".
It's hisgher than 22 at stock ride heaight.
Most of the country is faced with vehicle code ***** like you have in Cali.
I have been running 100watt euro driving lights as my main lighting for about three years and have never oce even been looked at. The can be aimed quite high, infact, and are far brighter than the headlights, thus I never use them. Once I find a good way to delete the headlights they are history.
It depends on the state and the taste. I happen to think MPD's lights are great looking.

sleepy-eye headlights are lame. Leave that for the ricers. If you are looking for aerodynamics, and you're willing to work, then just do the CGT headlight conversion (aka the 300zx headlights).

At least with the lazy-eye headlights, they still have the stock housings. IMHO the CGT conversion looks completely out of place on a 944.

You cant argue then it comes too what look good or not. It is all up too the eyes that look...

I like the snake eye / lazey look, and it is not for the areodynamics. I think that it look 10 000 times better than orginal.

Only my appion

He and I had a deal for a part unrelated to those headlights. No matter, he took the money and vanished. SOB
