the first american car with flush headlamps was, i believe,                     
the 84 mustang SVO (4 cyl turbo).                                               
this was also probably the first DOT-approved "replaceable bulb" headlamp.      
the audi 4K(q) from 85-on had flush/replaceables.                               
i don't know how or why laws changed between 87 and 90...
