Default headlight upgrade

I was curious has anyone tried to do a 928 headlight modification to a new beetle yet? I did a search and really didn't come up with anything.

What kind of modification? Do you have any pictures or examples of what you're talking about?

Question

Proper HIDs require a vehicle specific, engineered reflector, and I'm sure these won't interchange.
