Default Different AU headlights.

I was told at my local Autobarn, they can order different headlights for the AU falcons, simular to a euro prestige type look.

As seen on the fiesta.



Any one have any information on these style lights for the AU?

Like this?



Both designs are not too crash hot looks wise. Have heard the light emitted from the ones on the burgandy/maroon AU above is much better than standard. Seeing a few Taxi's with them on now. :

Im guessing the inserts are very simular to normal headlight covers, in the way they are attached to the car? Am I right?

Where can you get them from?

Not bad imo. Lighter coloured cars like the silver doesnt look so great.. But a black, dark green or dark blue would hide the lines.

I have the same headlight as on the burgundy car .... but it seems to look better on a white vehice ... I think JonBays has the same headlight (and he has a white wagon).
