At some point I may. Not sure if headlights are part of the NCRS criteria but would prefer oem bulbs anyway. One of the headlights is a T3

OE would be Guide T3 lights. There are several versions of the T3 lights, so check to make sure you are getting(or have) the correct ones for your year model. If having the car judged, then check with the NCRS(or Bloomington) Judging Guide for your year model for specifics that they look for...
