What options are available for aftermarket headlights? I would like to get some HID looking ones that have that BMW high end glow, but not a cheap ricey look.. Any suggestions.

As far as I know, you have fac. silver. and fac. with painted black (or any other colour) on the outside (req. you to do this yourself :D). Or you can buy some Halo's in black or silver. Thats about it, sorry.

I have chosen the easier, but more expensive option. I bought the Halos' :D.

Oh wait!! LOL, what f-body do you have? That was for Camaros. For T/As, you'll have to ask a T/A guy. I've seen a few people do a lot of dif. things for T/As. Like changing the whole light assembly to adding diff. lights. Any T/A guys want to comment.

i would also like to know more about the headlights for a TA. Possible the ones that take the place of the flip up lights.

Nice car!! Love that colour, looks like you could put an 01 decal right on the side :D.

BTW how did you hook up your Halos? I did mine through the fog lights as per the instructions that were given (or lack there-of). That way I could turn them off at night if I wanted.

Also are those Xenons ultra whites BTW? Just bought some for my headlights and my fogs. Love em :D!

T/A guys can get a sealed beam conversion housing from eurolites.com. They are a direct replacement housing that accepts a H7 bulb. Easy install too.

that link takes you to JC Whitneys website. Couldn't find anything on TA's. Maybe i'm blind

Sorry, try www.eurolamps.com and then contact them about housings for a firebird, they don't show them on their site for some reason, and they will send you a link w/ an order form.

Install instructions here:http://www.metalreviewcentre.com/headlight.htm

What i was looking for was the kit that makes them not flip up. I saw a WS6 that had the lights flush with the car. I'm not sure if i like them or not. I just wanted to see where you could get them. I guess it kind of makes it look like the 05 Vetts.

RK Sport used to carry a kit, not sure if they do anymore. Another guy off the original LS1.com named Red Baron was making a kit that was the best I had seen, but his web site isn't up anymore. Sorry I couldn't help anymore.

:yup: :love:

Love to trade my pewter for it, but would hate to have "everything" repainted so it wouldn't "look" repainted.
