FYI,

Those of us who have done this with our lights generally prefer the name "sleepy eyes"

There is nothing "lazy about these lights.

Mine are from CF member Michael Bassett.
They are called Sun Guns and use Hella projectors.

Can't beat the Sun Guns for style and superior light output.
Notice that European version has the highs and lows reversed. Their larger light sits in the smaller end of the opening, and vice versa. Probably a foreign requirement as to which light is on the outside/inside, but still looks odd.

Hopefully Michael will offer the Sun Guns again.

When the nylon gear in the headlight motor strips, then you will have the lazy eye look.
