Cleared my corners (finally)
Well......sorta.
More accurately, I paid GM (in a roundabout way) to do it for me.
Jon (jackal2000) found these at the swap meet of the Olds Homecoming Show. They are (what we believe to be) an early engineering/validation set of headlamp modules for a European Alero.
The low beams use H7 bulbs (which are common in projector housings - sadly, these aren't), and the high beams use H1 bulbs.
Not able to leave well enough alone, I retrofitted the low beams with a new 4300K HID conversion kit. And just for kicks (and because it looks so cool, and it's very functional), I upgraded the OEM projector foglamps with a 3000K HID conversion in an 880 bulb size.
Hope you all like, and excuse the dirty car.

Sorry, I just don't like it. All that matters is that you like it though.
