Aftermarket headlights

09-23-2005, 05:30 PM

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

). 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'

.

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.

If you have a Camaro, here's anotgher vote for the Halo Headlights.

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

.

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

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.

XtinKt · 09-26-2005, 01:02 PM

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

Deviant Hawk · 09-26-2005, 09:53 PM

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.

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.

Deviant Hawk · 09-27-2005, 11:44 AM

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.

XtinKt · 09-27-2005, 07:46 PM

no worries. Keep an eye out for me if you don't mind.

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