What do the PIAA headlights look like?
 
There was a "Mega Monster Miata" in the Miata corral at the Pebble Beach Historic 
races in August and among its many nifty features it had low profile halogen lights 
that I was told are offered as an aftermarket accessory in Japan. These lights were 
way cool. The car wasn`t bad either.

The car was a demo to promote a limited build (200) of a Miata fitted with a 
supercharged Mustang V-8, a domestic transmission, a T-bird rear-end, big
disk brakes, wide fenders, and 9" wide tires. The demo/promo car was very nicely
done. They were promoting a cost of $40k. I'd take one if I could, though it
wouldn't/couldn't replace my red 1990
