yes, yes, yes.  Been trying for a couple of years now to get the whole
bucket assembly that screws in with 4 screws (2 top, 2 front) so I can have
round headlights.  Don't know why!  I would have to do something wierd for
the bezel, and probably also do a custom grille (weld up four big O's?)  but
I guess I always preferred round headlights.  I see the rectangular ones as
being a strange styling glitch in between two sensible answers - round and
aerodynamic.  Any one got an old dasher, 5k or whatever nearby can help?  Oh
BTW I ordered some 90/130's for the outside fixture from JCW today but
they're backordered...guess I have about 2 weeks to figure this out or
forever hold my peace.

PS And then what lenses/bulbs to use? I think the outer one is avail. in
90/130 - probably could mod. the inner to take that one as well (hmm is that
where Phil P's 520 watts come from?).  Hi Ian!
