Damn it! I want the 06 lights now. Bi-xenon. Projectors. Clear turn signal. City light. It's such a huge improvement over the older ones. I've done retros before and they are a PITA. One thing that I want to see is the cutoff of the light against a wall from about 30ft away from a flat wall. That will tell us how sharp the cutoff is and how wide the light is projected.
G6MT. Could you take a couple of snapshots when it's done to see the performance of the lights? I'm sure a bunch of members are wanting to see this.

The 06' Fog lights are H1. It also says to see the dealer to replace the front parking lights, which I assume are the city lights I mentioned earlier. I wonder why? I'm guessing there isn't an easy access port, so you'd have to remove the headlight housing to replace it.
In the 05' manual, I couldn't find a listing for the foglight. But in the 06' manual, it shows the sedan as using H4. I assume that's the same as the previous model coupes.

I also noticed it says that the rear side marker lights are LEDs on the sedan, but regular T10 on the coupe
And count me in on an 06' Headlight group buy
