Do the Eurospecs get rid of that odd cut off line you see on the ground with
the DOT ones? Sad part is I had a set of the Euro ones in my hands a few
years back but sold them cheap as I had the South African rounds in that
van. I'll never get those again as I didn't like the quality of the grill.
Plus I really like the
look of the later headlights. Is there still a source out there for the
Eurospecs?
Thanks Kim for taking the time to answer.
