Yep, on a junkyard hopping trip in Southern California with my host Dan
Flemming, I came upon a pair on Porsche 928 H4's. These were huge 9"
monsters. I recognized them from having broken a brand new lens on my own
Euro spec 928 a few years back. They set me back $244 each. I brought the
things up to the front counter and to my delight, they charged me $5 each
including all the buckets and mounts. I stared at them for months trying t
decide it I sholud plug them into my Vanagon grill. Nah....... too big. I
stuck them on ebay and a 928 loving fellow begged to buy them for $250 for
the pair. Ummm-ummmm good cash.

I am now trying to figure out a way to but one of those BMW e30 projector
lamps in there. Has anyone else tried this? I think they would be perfect
conversion for the rectangular headlight folks who want a different look.
