Default Escort cos- std or quad lights? post your pics please?

I bought my car with the quad lights already in, but having looked at a few standard escort cossies, I can't decide if the STD lights look better or not??? Post your pics up please, and what you prefer

heres a few pics of mine, got 18" rondells and clear indicators now though

certain colours suit standard and other suit morettes.

i think black looks nice with standard lamps.i have a white one here on standard lamps which i think would look better on morettes,and a red one on morettes which looks cool.

buy some and keep swapping them.

Just the inners on mine (due to the HID bulbs fouling the flat face of the Diamond outers):

I've got Morrettes on mine but I actually prefer them with standard headlights. I think if the car's virtually standard then it's best to keep it looking original but if the car's modified then Morrette's can look really nice.





N800 COS (the plate not the car) is for sale if anyone's interested.
