I am considering retrofitting some reflectors from an 89 Honda Civic. Do you know anyone that might have a set of donor headlamps?

My final assessment: Light output is definitely increased. Bling factor is up a little bit. I'd like to see what the 55w kit looks like. But as CarbonCrew alluded to, there are definitely shortcomings of the stock projectors. I know this, it's a helluva lot easier than a retrofit. I'll drive it this way for awhile before I consider going any further.
