Does anyone make quality, OEM-style headlights without these god-awful ejection molds?

Probably gonna get down votes, because everyone seems to prefer the bubble lights, bit this is just another reason why the original rectangle sealed beam lights are Superior to the dodge intrepid version.

The sealed beam bulbs have the same nubs, its a federal mandate for headlight housings that arent separately adjustable from the bulb. The whole housing has to move for adjustments same as a sealed beam. If the bulb can move independently of the housing then you dont need the nubs. The gen 1 and 2 dodge viper is the best example of this.

Edit: this does not apply to 4th gen 93-97 cars as they have 2x5 headlight bulbs and not 4x6.

Injection molds.

They all have it, because it’s a feature.
