Aftermarket projector headlights for 7G - A possibility???
I was looking at my car today, and I had a thought. It's quite possible the 2G Eclipse headlights, with some modification, just might fit. They are essentially the same shape, and the way I see it, as long as the part that meets the fender is the exact same curve, it should work out. My friend has a 2G, and is selling it. I'm going to ask him if I can pull the headlight from it and just see if it fits. If that doesn't work, I have another idea...

Those are aftermarket 1G headlights. Notice the corner assembly and the main assembly are two different peices, like some of the JDM Galant headlights. Now, my question is, if we took the main part of this 1G headlight, and meshed it up with a genuine Galant JDM corner, would it be a match???
Has anyone ever tried this?
On another note, what exactly would it take to convince a manufacturer to produce aftermarket headlights for our cars? I know that all it took to convince Erac1ngs to produce a bodykit was a large enough group of serious buyers. Maybe we can try this with headlights?
The reason being is that I'm getting pretty sick of the crappy fluting and absolutely HORRIBLE light distribution of the 7G headlights. I have 10,000K HIDs, and I'm not getting the full potential from them because of the fluting. Sure, they're bright as hell and outshine all other halogens on the road, but I know for a fact they could be better. Also, I'm not crazy about cibbies, otherwise Eric would have my money already.
Thanks, and if this is a repost, I will slap myself on the moderator's behalf.
