I was just surfing the net and realized that you can come across the headlight conversions for non flip up lights for the last gen firebirds. I have a 98 v8 formula and I want to do the conversion.Can anybody tell me where to get then or order them from. Any Info I would appreciate it. Thanks smile.gif

I never really liked it.

Actually, I think those look pretty clean...beats the heck out of some of the hack-conversions you used to see on the 3rd gens, not to mention earlier vettes. I wonder if they meant 1998-2002 instead of 1997-2002 like on the website? I haven't seen any kits for the 93-97 birds.

They arent too bad, but for $1000, i'd much rather make my car a lot faster... you can do a lot for $1k... and my car looks REALLY mean at night, and with the fog lights on, it looks the batmobile!

thats looks sweet, i really like it but then again for a grand thats a little much, but if it was say 4-500 at the max and i had a 4th gen ls1 car, i would have already done it!!!

I have to agree!

ya...i dont' want to say they are "ugly" but they definitely don't seem right in a way. I think the headlights should be protruding a bit, as opposed to sunk in like with this setup. Notice how the C6 Vette's lights (VS C5 style) aren't just C5 shape, but clear like the NSX or something, they protrude a bit, giving them some character.

Thanks a lot for the link and your input biggrin.gif I think you are all kinda correct. they are ok lights but I think I like the flip up ones better as they give my formula a meaner and more aggressive look. and 1 GRand??!! lol..that kinda sealed the deal. I think it would look ok with black.but..other then that..im sticking with my pop ups. thx again!

I've been thinking about them for my TA.. but the price tag is tough to take...

Damn...y'know?....I knew you guys wouldn't like this idea...I was going to ask that same question!

I like the idea, but I think they may look pretty stupid on a white car...unless they have white ones????

octane motorsports makes a kit. idk how much like the before mentioned kit is. i don't really like the kits they have made but i don't like flip up lights too well. i think that a projector kit or halo kit might look a little better. anyone heard about any other kits?
