I do indeed like "angel eyes" but I have a feeling that the rice world will take it in a direction that will eventually kill the good looks.

You just need some "angle eye" driving glasses to wear at night!

My remedy was to buy some driving lights from Hella. Those things shine down the road like a set of headlights and made night driving much easier.
Now that you have some headlight covers, you can replace your crappy headlights with a good set of Cibie's and you won't need the driving lights anymore. Or keep the driving lights and make oncoming traffic feel like their at the end of a runway and your jet is landing in front of them!

Seriously, get good headlights. And none of the lights I've ever seen on eBay were worth a damn as you discovered.

Try a set. They're $60/ea for the housings w/ $15 100/55w Narva H4 bulbs and you'll NEVER use crappy headlights again.

Hehe, glad to have the "Bleach-seal-of-approval" I used to have a Prelude that had all the lights and gizmos: http://www.phatkokracing.com/gallery/albun02

^ OH SNAP! Diamond-plate floorboards! Just don't hit your NAWZ too long, or your floorpan will fall out.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. That car is freaking hot. Mad props.

I got mine from JC Whitney. I assume the Ebay ones are the same make. However, I will warn you that they will require some modification to fit. They are the correct diameter, but the fit into the stock headlight holders will require some modding of the headlights to fit properly. Also, the backside dome/bell shape of these headlights are larger.
