Has anybody converted their 240 from the crappy square, quad sealed-beams to the big glass euro lights? If so, where did you get them? I'm hunting for some on eBay and want to make sure I get the right kind. I am aware to get some designed for cars that drive on the right side of the road instead of those designed for the UK (I'm in the USA).

Also, what parts are needed? I'm thinking the glass, reflector, buckets, and bezel trim. What about the plugs to my car's wiring? Will they work with euro lights? Do they use H4 or H1 lamps or both?

Thanks much.
