[mkiv] Glass headlights

[Eric Typpo]

There are no US glass headlights, they are Euro spec lights.  They are
shaped a little differently than the plastic ones, but you have to look
pretty hard to notice it.  I doubt most people would see the difference
unless you were looking for it.  

I like mine, but they don't work that well with a HID conversion because
they have a BIG flare on the right side, which is pretty obnoxious to
drivers you get behind.  Drivers more than one lane to the right will hate
you when you come up behind them.  I'm going to disassemble mine one of
these days and re-engineer the cutoff shield to create a ______/---- kind of
cutoff rather 

             /   
than _______/

I dont know for sure if the US ones have it too, but the glass ones have a 
pretty ugly bump on top of the glass cover. Especially if you look at the 
car from the side it looks quite disturbing IMO.
