Your lights look like real xenons to me? Do they to you and does it give good visibility? I'm interested in those bulbs.

BTW, retrofitting xenons on the non-xenon housings are actually a fun and easy project, if you're one of those D-I-Y types.

I think its a unique look,,without hurting the sensabilities,the appreceiation for the design that will never be again,,,,,,,,,do they rattle or make any noise at all?I had heard that some of the AM light kits were a little shaky sounding before install.

Cool. When I bought a car, a dealer told that impossible to retrofit xenon, so I had to select different color of car I really do not like.

The piaa's lookin good

Don't all the pre-MY00 versions come with a black steering wheel, column and dash instead of matching with the interior? At least that's what I thought.....can anyone confirm? BTW, I got partronic too - useful if you don't forget its there.....

It's brown not black. The dash, steering column and wheel are all brown. The seats and everything else are tan / cream colored.
