Headlight police



Peter Rudy writes about the tribulations of rock damage to his '91 200 euro
lights:

If they were euro-spec lights you can change the lens only @ $30.  If they were
US-spec aero lights then the whole assembly has to get swapped @ $300.  I
suppose a BIG rock could take out the whole assembly, though.....

If you have euro-spec lights and your dealer/shop billed you for the whole
set-up then I'd have a talk with them.  ID'ing the euro specs for the 200/5k is
easy:  no amber running light and no aiming dots on the lens.  The differences
are even more obvious at night, in the dark.
