You mean you don't want a certain TT director to 3D print you a set that will slowly melt and make the car look like it's sad?

Ever get these installed and have anything to report on fitment?

Was about to start trying to rig something up using replacement lenses, but this might be an easy button for a little more scratch.

If you took an old set of headlights, gutted them of all innards and sprayed the inside of the lens black you'd have a decently light "blank"

Junk sets are still about $800. I was looking for a tired set to gut.

Even if you find an old 328 or something? The headlights should be the same.

I want to say yes… theoretically, one could buy a set of aftermarket lenses and make a bracket to hold it in place and paint it.
