Anyone knows the specific guidelines regarding aftermarket headlights?

 

I have a car which comes with your ordinary reflector headlights. Its an old car, so headlights are a pain in the *** to find.

 

Found this aftermarket brand which has a set which:

 

-uses projector lens, but are designed to work with normal halogen bulbs and not HIDs

- no angel eyes or anything funky

- has a DRL strip inside, but which I plan to permanently disable. Not a fan of DRLs anyways. Will even spray over it if it would make the headlight legal.

 

Any chances of me passing my inspection with these headlights?
