Instead of having the sealed units and probably eventually go to a HID

Good move :-) I can't quite remember where I got my lights/lenses from, possibly from a later-model Lancer, but I would imagine it should be easy to find a round driving light casing that would fit as a replacement. But definitely do it... much better than the old-school sealed beams!

Autopals are a good quality brand too, fairly cheap on ebay and are the H4 conversion lights. Come in both 5.75" and 7" lights, bought a set for my wagon last year. :thumpsup:
