I know what T84s look like. But will the repos from focuztech look like the originals with the lense deflecting light, or more like the ones above with the clear lense and deflector in the back of the housing? | |

| That European model has some neat features, The mirrors, and the headlight washers for a couple! That car is in Switzerland (CH sticker). I'll keep you all posted on the lights, and It looks like they also sell a smoke tinted version too! | |

| Please do post pics and your impressions once you get them installed. They look like a great and inexpensive upgrade to the stockers. So long as they fit right and have a better light pattern.

| You might want to hit up your local junkyard for the bulb refractor that goes over the light bulb to throw the light back into the rear reflector. Without it I am almost positive the light pattern and output will be worse than stock. The next time you walk by the front of any newer car with clear non-fluted headlights check out the bulb, you will notice they all have a little metal hood over the bulb so you can not see the bulb. This is what focuses the light back into the bucket so it can be thrown in the right pattern and not blind on coming traffic. I am interested in these also but, I will wait until I see a set mounted on a car and see how they hold up to leaking and yellowing. |
