They look similar to the M3 projectors with the shroud. Be forewarned if you buy the M3 bi-xenon projectors they are pretty large and fitment becomes a fun process, well at least it has been with mind and Shine Auto's housings.

I've read in the forums that the Hella 90mms will work in the Cwest kit, but I've never actually seen someone who has done it. One thread I read, mentioned that the Hella's were too small for the large opening and too big for the small opening.

I bought and installed the cwest kit on my car about 2 months ago and tried different fog and driving lights from PIAA, etc... Ultimately, the only thing I've found that works are the Catz XLOs and MSCs that the kit was designed around.

Finding the MSCs can be tough (especially in Hyper-white), but there are people out there that sell them. I got mine off a guy on e-bay - not sure of his ebay name, but his e-mail is jbendit@aol.com. I think I took his last set of Hyperwhites, but I think he still has the MSCs in gold. Also, you may want to check this site: http://foglights.com/parts.html. They may not have the the entire MSC kit, but they do still have bulb replacements.

I'm going to keep my eye on this thread though... If you do find a replacement light that fits and looks as good as the Catz MSCs I will definitely get them. The major problem with catz' lights is that they aren't technically street legal since they are fog/driving lights.

Here are a couple pics of my car showing the Catz xlo (small lights) and Catz MSCs (larger, round lights). Sorry, not the best quality pics... but its all I had on my PC at work. ;-)

I have one brand new Catz MSC. Got it before Catz stopped doing business here in The States. I also have a used one and am willing to sell the set with brand spankin new wire harness. Also have a set of MSX (oval set) that is in new condition, also comes with new harness. Let me know if you're interested in any of these. You will need to call me 'cause I just moved and don't have internet access yet. 732-586-3910
