Anyone can enlighten me why some models have smiley projector headlights and others projector only with no smiley? Where can I get replacement smileys? How much are they?My cabrio got smiley on left, no smiley on right... :-(Docazani
 
Doc,

The main function of the smileys is to reduce headlight glare for oncoming traffic.

The retail for around RM160 toRM180 a piece but are getting increasingly hard to find. Better luck locating them at chop-shops.

BTW, smasing ride! I knew the previous owner and have had many nice evening cruises in her before. Good to know that she has found an appreciative new owner.
 
Thanx for info shaifulo.
