Thanks....

Hate to break it to you but most aftermarket lights, especially projectors, have worst light output than stock.

um...buy a euro car if you want euro headlights.

nobody makes projector headlights for our cars yet, and if they did, youd need HIDs to make it worth it.

the only headlights available have the insides partially painted black. neither here nor there on whether the output is the same. some say it is some say its less output.

some of us have made custom projectors. it can be done but you need to know what youre doing.

what makes those euro?

euro lights would be ones that have city lights on them. german cars have city lights becuase in the city its so bright at night that normal headlights arent needed. the angel eyes came from that idea.

from what i heard, AED made a limited supply of them, all fo which have already been sold out.

I believe your right Dave. From what I saw they were only making 20 and will be the only ones

I read in an old Super Street Magazine of mine, a 96 GA can have 96 honda headlights installed on it. Thats what the magazine said. They looked nice too.

they don't just fit,they need to be custom fitted. Not easy as bolting them right up.


stick with the black out housings for the Grand Am

I know where he's coming from. Back in the day when most cars had sealed beam headlights newer cars with composite lights were known as 'euro'.

Now 'Euro' is projectors or something of that sort.

it seemslike whatever the latest trend is gets called "euro". remember the "euro" tail lights? they came from a design used on a lexus, a japanese car. while the "angel eyes" did come from europe, and ill bet the projectors did too, they had a purpose there. theres no purpose here except for looks.
