Just to let you know in case you, or anyone else, is thinking about converting these into the MX-3.....<p>I've held ALL 3 generations of Viper headlights in my hands, and compared them to the MX-3 headlights.<p>The Viper lights are REALLY long and if you put them in they'd almost take up the whole front of your car. They're large, but not tall. VERY deep though.<p>Just an FYI.<p>~A

I noticed that when doing the above image, cut a lot out of the viper lights and had to squash them width wise to create a similar shape to the mx-3 ones.

the car is the MG MGF and it isnt available here in north america, from other pics I have seen I dont think they would work to well. they dont come over enough(towards the center of the car)although you could always import them from europe, Im positive you can get them in GB, but not sure else where, btw MG is planning to come back into the North American market in 2006 so it will be a while b4 you can easily get those heads over here. hope this helps
late night conversations turn into a fight, and all the years youve been frustrated finaly subside, and you walk away, to face the day, alone.

Hey barry, any up dates on the projector headlight pods? I was just wondering seeing that you are going to mold some lights into your car instead of using your own creation. But then again those Porsche ones will look bada$$. <p>thanks

Hey Barry, you know that those Porsche 911 lights come with bi-xenon HID projectors too, but I think that they would be too expensive. Would be really cool though.
