<![CDATA[E30 headlight options]]>So I got to work last night and walked around to the front of my car to find this:

My relatively new Hella H4 got in a fight with something and lost.

So I either replace the one housing (and have 1 shiney new headlight sticking out like a sore thumb) or upgrade the set. Anyone have any recommendations? I'd rather not spend hundreds of dollars. Anyone have experience with the depo euro smilies? I heard they leak but resealing them wouldn't be impossible

Up by me there are a TON of ellipsoids in E34's. E30's though, not so much. Hit up R3v, they're always for sale there!

My problem now is that it is pretty hard to find a set in decent shape for a reasonable price, any suggestions?
