Well,

Yes and no.

They DO keep the keep the stock look. BUT, the Euro H-4s are being
sold by Fastforward for US$330 JUST FOR THE PAIR OF LIGHTS! And then
what happens if one gets busted??? OUCH.

You can buy an SA Grille, AND round headlights for that amount or
less. Plus, the round lights have a MUCH better light pattern, even
better than the H4s.

So, if you need to keep the look of the stock lights, the best
improvement is the Euro H4 conversion.
