I like to stay on top of what is available in the aftermarket for our cars. I stumbled on these: http://cgi.ebay.ca/93-94-95-96-97-VOLVO ... 2c52ab3872

At first I was disappointed they only had them for the 850, then I noticed a couple things. #1, they seem to integrate the turn signals into the headlight assembly, #2 I am not sure I even like the way they look. Any opinions, and has anyone seen these particular lights before?

I'd like to get some HID lights for my car for those twisty country roads at night, but I think angel eyes only look good on the BMW 5-series. Just a matter of opinion though.

Especially not on that 960, what the heck? There's a couple guys over on Volvospeed that have done things like this to their wagons, and added ugly-looking rims.

I saw a minivan the other day with angel eyes and spinners, and almost died laughing.

I personally love the way my T5 looks stock, and short of maybe adding a trunk spoiler and tinting my back windows, I wouldn't change a thing.

I read these don't come with the eyes wired and you need to wire them to be on when you want. I am just very interested in having a good set of headlights. I may just get a cheap 35w xenon conversion kit for my high beams and turn them off with traffic obviously.

These Sonar projector headlights look great on my 93.
