5KS Euro lights (Aero - H4)



Well, I looked again in the junkyard at those lights on the 84.  They are
definitely Euro H4 headlights (no alignment nipples, Bosch - made in Germany
sticker, no DOT on lens, little clips holding lens on) - $75.00 complete,
including grill and side marker lights.
  Problems:
  1.  One reflector is really bad, the other marginal.  Does anyone have a
feel for the cost/PN of replacement reflectors for these (remember these are
not the Turbo/quattro lights)?   Can they be refurbished?  Does this make the
price not really worth it?  My plan is to use these as an interim for a year
or two until I can get/afford some tq euros - then sell the whole retrofit to
someone else.

 2.  Drivers side marker light edge is broken - minor fix (esthetics) - can
these Euro side markers be ordered/gotten easily?

I didn't leap into action and grab them yet because a) I don't want them
sitting around too long if I can't use them yet (wife), and b) there just
ain't that many Audi nuts cruising junkyards that would recognize them
anyway...
