what some people do back in the days was split the wires and squeeze the city light bulb in between the headlamp socket.
opt auto sells those kits

of course, then you'd have to drill your chrome housing, as well.
personally, I would say, if you want city lights, get JDM lamps. They're well worth the investment :thumbup:
eh, here in the states, its just bling, really. I like driving around at dusk with my headlamps off when I can show them off

TYC makes a set of headlights;
Not projectors or anything, but supposedly they could also accomodate 194/168 bulbs as an optional "daytime running light". These sell for a little over 100 bucks.
