My understanding was that in 1984, in Canada, you could not get any form of Aero styled lights whether Euro or otherwise, because the laws on the books at the time only allowed sealed beam headlights to be used on cars.  My parents picked up what's now my '84 5KS in Europe, and I remember thinking how shitty the headlights (and bumpers for that matter) looked compared to the Euro type 44 cars.  Those quad headlights work ok, but they really date the car.
