Default To all the 97+ sc or headlight owners

Can you post some pics of the output and the cutoff line?
I know that the 97+ headlights have much better projectors with a nice sharp cutoff.
Just want to decide if its worth the hassle to do a retro fit + restore or just buy brand new headlights.

I think it's only 99-00 that have the better projectors + cutoff. I say just do a retrofit with TSX or something.

As i understand it the "better" headlights were never even installed on the SC from the factory, they were only available after 2000, they changed manufacturers or updated them after the car was out of production and the only way to get them was to order new ones from the dealer.

My '99 has a very distinct cutoff line. Other than that, they're nothing special. Like he said above, do a TSX retrofit.
