The four small rectangular lamp setup was a appearance package, not a performance option.

My van is a rocket ship now cause I swapped out the headlights to round! | | | Re: 85 Dodge "Root Beer" | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 21,211 Likes: 25 Supreme Master | OP Supreme Master Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 21,211 Likes: 25 | The ultimate goal is to have Kurk from Custom Van make me a custom billet grille, but you have to retain a portion of the stock grille to do it. I think the billet grille along with the round headlamps would look good. Different.
He already said my van would be the guinea pig.

But now that they are the "norm" I have started to like the round lights again. I think the same thing has happened to me with big wheels. Now that even new trucks on the showroom floor have them I have seemed to go back to 15's lol. Anyway here is a pic of a Streetvan with round headlights. I think they look nice.

I think it just gives an older look. | | |
