Maybe a smaller housing like they used in the 80s BMWs? The M3 (e30)had a projector style for the high beam that was found on the other BMWs of the era. This is a part that can be found at a pick-a-part mostly seen on the 5 serries.http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-HELLA-Headlight-Kit-E30-320-325-M3-for-US-Models-BRAND-NEW-Left-and-Right-/131275710129?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e90a45eb1&vxp=mtr

can you mount it far enough behind the headlight bezel so you don't have to cut?
