[V8] euro light install WOW!

[Andy Schor]

Bob is correct.  The OEM lights for 5KT(q)s and 200s are particularly bad, 
so the upgrade to Euros is much more significant.  I once had an '87 5KTQA 
and noticed a shadow ahead, which turned out to be my headlight beam 
surrounded by brighter light from the car behind me!
