Default 98+ Bird Sleepy Eyes

So my Daily Driver Civic Blew up the other week and I had Retro Solutions Bi-Xenon Projectors in it. I figured its time to ditch my glaring HIDs on the Bird and see if i can use the Projectors(bi-xenon, 5000k HID). But I was thinking since the projectors are only like 2 or 3 inches tall maybe make the headlights only open up enough for the Projectors, It would looks sleaker IMO Has anyone done this on a 98+ bird? I figured id either need a controller or change the pivot location on the rod for the headlights, But would like some input.

I was thinking maybe someone could drill them into the lids but reccessed enough to make them look good.

Sounds like a nice idea. Beats the idea of having the Le Mans style non-flip headlights like the current vettes have. Never seen the sleepy eye mod on a bird though. Would be interesting.

Never finished my Sleepy Eye setup that I'm custom fabbing due to lack of free time as of late (reverted back to stock for now). Too many things popping up here and there that take precedence over this project unfortunately but i fully intend to get back into it when time permits.
