Those are CTR headlights, which these definetly are not.
CTR headlights aren't gold either.

How's the beam pattern on them? Any daylight pictures you can supply of the units? No indication of a manufacturer? Not all OEM headlights were made by Stanley ... but there sure are a lot of repros out there in the world - my money's on that.
