Just wondering why the Euro headlamps are desirable to U.S. owners, Just asking, as Im based in the U.K myself and wondered what all the 'fuss' was with 'Euro-headlamps' as I see it crop up again and again.....

Is it the earlier 'round lamps behind single-glass' or the later more 'square lamps behind single glass' that are desirable. I have both types of Euro lamps, but quite like to look of the U.S. headlamps....

A local guy to me, Mark Kosovich, who probably knows more about the W123 than anyone currently at M.B.UK reckons that optically, the earlier Round lights are far superior to the later type. Both apparently were made by Hella...

Just curious....
