When I crashed my first type 89 and didn't have the money to fix it up
properly, I decided to buy fake headlights. Same price, about half what
Hellas cost. Dunno who made them, but they weren't OE. Not OE quality, not
even close- plastic housings were thin and fragile, lens was pretty crappy
and didn't even resemble the original. They should've been better than my
old zillion-mile sandblasted Hellas, but they weren't. Hell to adjust, too-
glad I sold the car soon afterwards, no long-time experience. The only
thing I recall is that there was always some moisture in those lights.

Just my EUR .02...
