Or like I saw on another thread in here where the guy with the SL took the lenses off. Once agian how would I take those off. I looked at them and they didnt look like they were bolted down so I don't know. And while I'm on this once agian I might as well ask if anyone knows a good sealed beam headlight that would qualify as a "Xenon Halogen" (a name and brand would be great).
1. options for pop-ups? H4 simply allows you to change the bulb out and put brighter bulbs in. For the headlights to be on shining through the bottom exterior lens is called the Snake Eyes mod. there are several different ways to do it. so a search on here, there have been many threads. the easiest way to do it is to use the 'jumper wire method'.

2. the lenses that are commonly referred to as the snake eyes lens, is just a bolt-on piece. however, to access the bolts, you have to remove the headlights.

3. "Xenon Halogen"---where did you get this info? i've never heard of that. if you want a brighter light, then you basically have 2 options: A) convert to 2nd gen headlights B) do an HID retrofit.
